Er, they only work in C on Linux/Unix. In C/Windows DLLs link by name, and
without symlink support, you've got the same problem over again.
I spell out my argument in excruciating detail in the doc below, but IMO the
rule should be that if the artifact specifies a <finalName>, we should use
that finalName everywhere, including in the default repository layout. That
will require a change to the way snapshots are story in the default layout,
where currently we put a bunch of snapshots all in one directory. But we
should stop doing that anyway!
