The FAQ indicates that you can't execute a link or follow it as a directory.
Is this going to continue to be the case or is it the intention that this
will eventually change?

We have tried porting the Eli compiler construction system to NT using the
toolset.  The major stumbling block appears to be the problems with
symbolic links.
