This is *so* weird.

When I run the service under the cyg_server account, then the S4U logon
for the local SAM user works as expected, even right after reboot.
The weird thing here is that my cyg_server account is a domain account.

What this has to do with the MsV1_0S4ULogon for a local SAM account
beats me.  The only explanation I have for that is that the service
running under the domain cyg_server account constitutes some kind of
"local login", so MsV1_0S4ULogon subsequently starts working.

This cyg_server account does not necessarily require the "create token"
permission anymore, of course.

Big sigh here.

With S4U I had hoped to catch two birds with one stone:

- Getting rid of two old methods, cyglsa and "create token".

- Dropping the requirement for the cyg_server account.

But the old Systems like Windows 7 don't want to play nice.

- On Vista and Windows 7 WOW64, MsV1_0S4ULogon isn't implemented
  at all, which required to keep the create_token method
  available

- On Vista and Windows 7 MsV1_0S4ULogon does not work without
  some user logged in locally, even if it's just the cyg_server
  service account.

Question is, what is a good solution?  Reverting cyglsa as 
well to allow the old methods to work as before?  This is
the opposite of what I had hoped to accomplish :(
