Right, I wasn't trying to imply that the location of the shared section
had anything to do with IL, just explaining why his elevated shell in
session 1 could see the processes of services in session 0 (i.e. because
the elevated session 1 could create the shared section in the global
namespace and read the cygwin process table.)
