Cygwin bash currently fails to execute due to OpenProcessToken.OpenProcessToken is an NT-only feature, right? What does Cygwin do for windows 9x?
Looking in source, I see that advapi32.OpenProcessToken calls
ntdll.NtOpenProcessToken.
This functions is a stub that returns always false today.
This has a member, has_security, which is checked before any security functions like OpenProcessToken
are used.
The struct is initialized in wincap.cc which calls GetVersionEx to determine the version
of Windows being used, then copies a const version of the wincap struct for that
Windows version onto the actual struct used. This has has_security set to false for non-NT versions
of Windows.
So presumably setting the Wine version should avoid this... haven't checked though,
just looked at the cygwin sources
