4.0.2/4.0.3 does not contain any symlinks, the RELEASE_NOTES.txt says:

 "* Starting with TYPO3 4.0beta3, internal symlinks are not used
    anymore. This means, that there will be no symlinks inside the
    typo3_src/ folder. However, some extensions are not correctly
    adopted to the new scheme, therefore you may want to add the
    symlinks again to prevent any problems."

It is the dummy package, which contains the symlinks.
