Is there a reason, why you want to compile Julia yourself? It might be easier to use a precompiled version, that you can download from http://julialang.org/downloads/ .
ln -s creates a symbolic link to the executable, such that is in the search path. This is the way to go on Linux, but I don't know if it works with mingw on Windows, that you are using. On Linux, you can check with which julia in which directory the julia executable is found. Perhaps you have two versions on your computer and you execute the old version because it is in the search path before your new version?
