The closest thing is to share a drive:\path across the network and then map it
to a drive letter. Windows doens't care that the mapping is back to the same
machine. But this doesn't achieve the same result as a symlink. Internally the
full UNC path is often expanded.

I don't think any of the Windows platforms ship with headers. They come with the
compiler.
