I'll come up with a patch for Amaury's message.

Hirokazu - I didn't see that MSDN page, thanks. Without st_ino, I'll need to find a way around the block of lines 1941-1954 in Lib/tarfile.py. That's what was causing a test failure in the first place because it ends up assuming Windows files are always REGTYPE, which sets some things later on in that function differently than they should be for links, namely tarinfo.size.
