[issue23808] Symlink to directory on Windows 8

[Alexey Izbyshev]

Alexey Izbyshev <izbyshev at ispras.ru> added the comment:

This behavior is not specific to just Windows 8. Symlinks to directories are treated as directories on Windows, in particular, they should be removed with RemoveDirectory, not DeleteFile.

Is there any reason this issue is still open?
