Creating symbolic links during installation does not work on Windows. Example:

EXEC : CMake error : failed to create symbolic link 'Imath.dll': operation not permitted

It is useless anyway, because when distributing the DLLs to other systems the links do not work anymore. The links have to be recreated on each system. This must then be integrated into the installation program.

See #739
