I use Cygwin on Windows 7 and found that the default symlinks don't allow Git or Phpstorm to work properly with modman'd projects.

The problem is resolved by setting 'winsymlinks:native' in the CYGWIN environment variable.

Apparently, command line PHP on Cygwin uses this variable for its "symlink" and related functions.

My fork fixes a number of things, but this is the main item.

Please don't rmdir links but unlink them (as mentioned in @russellrobinson comment). It raises the following warning:
PHP Warning: rmdir( path/to/link ): Not a directory in /path/to/bin/modman.php on line 1171

Links should be unlinked, not rmdir'd
