Hmm. From that behavior I would think that this is a permissions problem
not an insufficient-resources problem. Perhaps cygipc has a small bug
that causes it to return the wrong error code for a permissions failure
(ie, it says ENOMEM when it should say EPERM)?

Either that, or NT has different memory use limits for different users.

I have no idea where you look to fix it in either case; just wanted to
suggest that maybe you shouldn't believe the error code completely.
