Note: I can't test this, as I only run Windows XP. But it compiles cleanly on
Windows, and on Linux it compiles and passes the test suite fine.

Patch attached. Implementation now uses GetFileAttributes (A or W) to
determine whether or not src is a directory. Fixed docstring, docs, and
updated Misc/NEWS.

New submission from Larry Hastings la...@hastings.org:
The prototype for os.symlink on Windows adds a target_is_directory flag,
which indicates whether or not the destination is a directory.
Surely we could detect that and pass in the correct value ourselves? A quick
GetFileAttributes() call
