Issue #7106 has been updated by luislavena (Luis Lavena).


Krzysztof Wilczynski, would you mind provide an updated patch that return NotImplementedError on Windows?

Feel free to send a pull request on GitHub and I'll get these bits merged.

Thank you.

Most systems support POSIX lutimes sys call that allows a symlink to be touched. I'd like to see this feature implemented.
Unfortunately I'd like to see this feature on Solaris as soon as possible but I cannot see lutimes syscall supported there.
