Does stow have support for hard links at all? No, not at present. If not is that an easy thing to add in? It probably is, although I can't spend any time on it in the foreseeable future. Such an option would make stow more useful on Cygwin, IMHO. I think you're right, for the

libxml2-devel-2.16.2: missing static archive
