[Bug 1172261] [NEW] ntfs relative symlink not resolved

[UlfZibis]

Public bug reported:

- Create relative symlink with matching path deepth >= 2 on Windows 7 machine using e.g. LSE [1]
- Reboot with Ubuntu and mount that NTFS partition
- In properties of that non-working symlink, nautilus shows as target path:
  "../..\my_NTFS_target"
  So the 2nd back-slash is the problem
