No problem, I still see a unique thread so that's not an issue seen from here.

So you see the same behavior with the patch I sent and your
refactoring, right? If yes, backpatching the one-liner is the safest
bet to me. We could keep the refactoring for HEAD if it makes sense.

Something is wrong with the format of your patch by the way. My
Windows and even OSX environments recognize it as a binary file,
though I can read it in any editor and I cannot apply it cleanly with
a simple patch command. Could you send it again and double-check?

So basically you allocated a SID to drop via AllocateAndInitializeSid,
called _CreateRestrictedToken and let the process being spawned? I
think that this is the patch attached
(win32-disable-service-rid.patch). Could you confirm? I want to be
sure that we are testing the same things.
