Crash on Windows XP SP2 when not run as an administrator

[Todd O'Bryan]

I've tested mysql in my high school lab running from an administrator 
and from a student account, both from within the Cygwin terminal, and 
at the Windows command prompt. From the administrator account, it runs 
fine for hours. From the student account, it promptly (within 15 
seconds or so) crashes with the same error each time. I managed to 
write down the error:

--------------------------------------
Debug Assertion Failed!
Program: mysqld.exe
File: ftell.c
Line: 50
Expression: stream != NULL
---------------------------------------
This pretty successfully crashes the MySQL server so that if you're 
running the client, you get messages about the server being 
inaccessible and such.

Is there something that non-administrators need access to that could be 
causing the problem? Could it be an SP2 issue?

I have access to a server where I can set up student accounts so that 
we can do the tutorial I have planned, but I do, eventually, need to be 
able to run MySQL on my lab machines.
