    ... by implementing a fake ln in qmake.
    
    symlinks are supported only since vista (we officially still support
    xp), and even there are permission-restricted (MS being (rightfully)
    afraid of symlink attacks). so we fake the links by copying the files
    instead.
    
    the previous hack was a bit naive, simply using cp/copy instead of ln.
    this didn't work with relative paths, as real symlinks are resolved
    against their parent directory, not the working directory of the "ln"
    command. the new fake does this correctly.
