The handle is 3. GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE) is also 3.

Looks like it. Maybe you can't SetHandleInformation on standard handles
in Windows 7?
I suppose that is possible. By default the normal stdin is used, so maybe
the OS makes the decision on inheritance based on whether it is used or
not. Clearly it works for some people...
Did you try SetHandleInformation directly on that handle? It's still
slightly possible that some other call caused the exception while this one
was being thrown.
