Emacs on Windows doesn't support symlinks; they are new with Vista and
Windows 7. Someone needs to write the code to support that, before
this can be considered a bug (as opposed to a feature request).
What you describe seems to indicate that insert-file-contents only
reads the first 64KB portion of the file, and then bails out. Running
Emacs under debugger and reporting where it bails out of the reading
loop might help coming up with some band-aid solution. But full
support of symlink requires specific support code, that just isn't
there at this time.
