Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:

Latest PR update uses GetFinalPathName to resolve SubstituteName, returning it 
unmodified on failure (e.g. symlink where the target file no longer exists).

Replacing "\??\" with "\\?\" in place is trivial though, as we start with a 
mutable buffer. I'm just not clear that it's as simple as that, though.
