If a Windows symlink points to a directory, then rmdir is the correct function to call. If it points to a file, then unlink is the correct function. When pointing to a file, the symlink can also have the read-only attribute, which makes it subject of the little chmod dance.

If a Windows symlink points to a directory, then rmdir is the correct
function to call. If it points to a file, then unlink is the correct
function. When pointing to a file, the symlink can also have the
read-only attribute, which makes it subject of the little chmod dance.
This depends on the fix in #883.
