Jacob Holtom and I have been working on the smbd symlink reparse point
code as well, changing it to properly return the symlink error/reparse
responses instead of just adding the reparse tag.

Our target environment does not support extended attributes.  We've been
talking about using the UNIX symlink target as the link-target when the
follow symlinks option is enabled.  Does anyone have any objections?
