Comment(by kcrisman):
I can confirm that this enables building of cddlib on Windows 7.
While waiting to try for other things, I have a question. The process is
1. Untar
1. Tar with links followed
1. Untar again
1. Use `sage -pkg` to create the new spkg
So does that mean that the untarred one the second time does have the
followed links, not just symbolic ones? I guess I am curious as to why
steps 3 and 4 are needed, though I assume it is in order to get the
correct spkg checking.
