Adding nowinsymlinks to CYGWIN env variable does
indeed cure the problem !
I also find this bug quite strange:
the wrong destination to the symbolic link is
kept even if cygwin DLL is unloaded from memory
(at least Taskinfo does not see this file as open anymore !)
Where can this information be kept then ???
Personally I don't care much about having links that are not windows
compatible,
but I would like to have working links.
I will add CYGWIN=nowinsymlinks
to my startup script for now, but this problem
should be either resolved or this option should become
default for win95 if it is reproduced by others !
