virtualbox 3.1 disables symlinked directory browsing on net share

Weird! Since I updated to 3.1.0 I can no longer see the directories that are symlinks from Windows XP. From Windows guest, I can browse my network share and see my /home/alphazo and the files it contains. However I can no longer go to /home/alphazo/mypicts which is a symlink to /home/alphazo/Pictures. I can see a 1kb file called mypicts though. Pretty easy to duplicate. Please note that I have recompiled and restarted virtualbox modules as well as re-installing guest tools.

Can someone help me on this one as I can no longer access my work documents easily from my virtualized XP box?

Thanks
Alphazo
