Protocol error with junctions in shared directory — at Initial Version

Description
Host: Win XP Pro SP3 32bit
Guest: Ubuntu 10.04 32bit
In a shared directory on the Windows host I have created junctions (aka "reparse points") to other directories. When using guest additions 3.2.12 these are treated as regular directories and the contents of the linked directory is shown.
With guest additions 4.0.0 (both versions tried in the same VM in VB 4.0.0) when I try to "cd" into one of the junctions, I get an error like "bash: cd: Junction: Protocol error" where "Junction" is the name of the junction.
