AFAIK, we will if we want to run as Administrator on Vista. I'm not
sure what we're doing there is actually compatible with it though. And
do we care? I'm perfectly fine saying that we don't support that part
on cygwin, and just #ifdef the whole thing out there?

You have broken the Cygwin build (see buildfarm). Will we need those
calls to AddUserToDacl() on Cygwin? If not, the simplest thing would
be to #ifdef them out, I guess.

Log Message:
-----------
Fix handling of restricted processes for Windows Vista (mainly),
by explicitly adding back the user to the DACL of the new process.
This fixes the failure case when executing as the Administrator
user, which had no permissions left at all after we dropped the
Administrators group.
