    Cygwin: testsuite: Drop Adminstrator privileges while running tests
    
    Test access05 and symlink03 expect operations to fail which succeed when
    we have Adminstrator privileges.
    
    There's perhaps a bit of incoherency here: some XFAILed tests expect to
    run as root (so maybe we need the ability to selectively cygdrop?).
