Sorry, it was a quick hack that seemed to work, and now for some
reason does not. The issue itself still exists though. 

I've tracked it down to the convert-standard-filename call in
org-open-file. If i remove the convert-standard-filename, it does not
recognize it as an efs type file.

Anyway convert-standard-filename is what mangles efs type file
links. My guess is that it may be related to the C:\\filename problem
too.
