It's fine to critique things, but we also need fixes that are better. The hard link ain't got to work in a zip. But hard-linking is right for the other situations, so changing the build (i.e. make) to fix this isn't probably not a good idea. So, we have a minor problem, with no obvious solution. Again, I doubt that 6Mb is a problem for anyone; is it causing you any difficulties? If you are really raring to make Emacs work nicely with other systems, then the two main problems with the windows build at the moment are the lack of an MSI, and a mechanism for signing the binaries so they don't produce a warning on running.
