OK, got it working nicely:
        
        case $host_os in mingw*)
        AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS([check_win32_symlinks],[
        # Links sometimes fail undetected on Mingw -
        # so here we detect it and warn the user
        for FILE in "$CONFIG_LINKS"
         do
                # test -e works for symlinks in the MinGW console
                test -e `expr "$FILE" : '\(^:*\)'` || AC_MSG_WARN([*** link for
        $FILE - please fix by hand])
         done
        ])
                ;;
        esac

Applied.
