Calling stat() from userspace correctly identified junctions in an NTFS partition as symlinks, but using readdir() and iterating through the directory containing the same junction did not identify the junction as a symlink. When emitting directory contents, check FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT attribute to detect junctions and report them as links.
