> Creating symlinks to directories, during a retrieve, seems to _always_ fail on Windows 7, even when running with the required (elevated) privileges. Instead, the fallback copy method is always used.
> Running with verbose logging reveals the fallback is used due to a java.nio.file.FileAlreadyExistsException.
