may not be an issue, if most/all relevent store apps function the same
when the executable is exec-ed directly vs via the appexec link.

I am skeptical about this patch (part 1), interposing appexec reparse
point data as symlinks for cygwin applications.
The appexec reparse point data is essentially an extended attribute
holding data that is used by CreateProcess(), more like a windows .lnk
file or an X11 .desktop file, not

3rd pass at reparse point handling patch.
Changes to this version of the patch.
1. Refactored, smaller, less code impact.
2. readdir() and stat() consistency changes now also handle native file
(non-directory) symbolic links. readir() returns DT_REG to match lstat()
indicating a normal file.

This patch fixes a minor compatibility issue w/ cygwin mount point
handling in readdir(), compared to equivalent behavior of Linux and
MacOS. dentry.d_ino should indicate the INO of the mount point itself,
not the target volume root folder.

Corinna,
I will work through the code and apply your feedback. A few
additional comments below.

2nd pass at reparse point handling patch.
Patch is intended to improve cygwin application compatibility with
native mount points and native symlinks where target does not begin with
"\??\X:" or "\??\UNC" or "\??\Volume{". Such symlinks function with
native windows apps, but fail today with
