Thanks for mentioning that.  I committed simplifications along those
lines to the trunk as revision 103380.  I don't expect
this to affects Windows builds, as the only new symbol in config.in
is HAVE_LSTAT and Windows doesn't have lstat.

One minor thing: Gnulib's <sys/stat.h> substitute guarantees
the existence of S_ISLNK, but not S_IFLNK.
