afaik, managing symlinks in SVN is fully possible if you want to target "windows" (proper), as you will then get copies of the files (no symlinks, no shortcuts, no emulations), which is what i expected and which would have done no harm.
It is consistent on each platform, i.e. MinGW builds will be the same no matter how they were checked out. Its definitely not consistent across platform.
well, i guess that with this constraint, managing symlinks in SVN is consistent on each platform as well. afaik, mixing mingw and cygwin is to be considered "across platforms", which is where our problems come from (because the checkouts (including symlinks) where done with cygwin and the builds done with mingw (not knowing how to handle cygwin's symlinks)
anyhow, nevermind.
