Thanks for the early feedback.  Still, I changed it for -0.6 again,
because that's what had happened in the old code, too:  If the uid or
gid can't be resolved to a Windows SID, the function fails now with
ENOENT.  That's a non-POSIX extension because the problem just doesn't
exist on real POSIX systems.  Please give it a try.


Thanks,
Corinna
