The ``symlink'' support from older DJGPP version was not removed from
the current CVS.  It is still supported.

I think the problem is the other way around: whyen, say, a configure
script says "ln -s foo.c bar.c", v2.04-compiled `ln' creates a
new-style symlink that GCC compiled with v2.03 cannot grok, so it
chokes when asked to compile such a file.
