Anyway, there's no need to revert the commit, just don't lock the
ticket until the real solution is applied.
Here it is. It fails on one of my machines and succeeds on another.

The failure is fixed when I remove /etc/passwd & /etc/group
thus allowing Cygwin to use the new-style security mappings
(https://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-02/msg00306.html).
Due to this, the severity of the failure has dropped abruptly.
Thus I'm not going to investigate this further, I'll just create
another issue with my findings on the matter since there _does_
appear to be a flaw in Perl's logic according to them.

For now, it's enough that this problem is visible in test results now.
