According to

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_link#Microsoft_Windows

shortcuts cannot use relative paths.  They also have other limitations.

It seems that newer Windows systems do support almost-POSIX symbolic
links.  As far as I can tell, however, the Python Standard Library does
not yet wrap them.

For the repo problem, I'll try to avoid making essential use of links.
