That sort of test usually fails when run with a user token that has
backup/restore privileges, which you can get rid of via cygdrop (this
sometimes trigger different fails with other tests). If you are using
DLL from build directories you might also run into fork errors, so an
ephemeral rebase could help.
Thanks Achim,
Awesome inspiration!
Whether from rebasing, and/or dropping privileges, and/or both, no change in
local tests all passing, but now scallywag tests are also all passing.
Soo-wee! Woo-hoo! Yee-haa!
Do you have any links or refs to why those privs cause failures?
I found one article that implies that with those privs, CreateFile() needs flag
FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS or access fails! Does that sound about right?
