Windows doesn't have the concept of relative symlinks, so it's quite
clear, that Windows clients just treat it as another directory.
Apparently mc tries (tried) to be smart and dereferenced the symlinks. I
am not sure why such a design choice would be made, but there might be a
reason for it...

Just in case, is this still an issue with the latest package? I don't
have ftp to reproduce.
