junction [-d] <junction directory> [<junction target>]

is the syntax. and it does not create a copy but a symlink.
this is how it should look like:

F:\WWW\sites\dev.mysite\media: JUNCTION
   Print Name     : F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\tslib\media
   Substitute Name: F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\tslib\media

F:\WWW\sites\dev.mysite\t3lib: JUNCTION
   Print Name     : F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\t3lib
   Substitute Name: F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\t3lib

F:\WWW\sites\dev.mysite\tslib: JUNCTION
   Print Name     : F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\tslib
   Substitute Name: F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\tslib

F:\WWW\sites\dev.mysite\typo3: JUNCTION
   Print Name     : F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\typo3
   Substitute Name: F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\typo3

.F:\WWW\sites\dev.mysite\typo3\gfx: JUNCTION
   Print Name     : F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\t3lib\gfx
   Substitute Name: F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\t3lib\gfx

F:\WWW\sites\dev.mysite\typo3\t3lib: JUNCTION
   Print Name     : F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\t3lib
   Substitute Name: F:\WWW\sites\typo3_src-3.7.0\t3lib


you also have to copy the font files mentioned in the install.txt because 
junction only works for directories, not files (will change with MS Vista).
