Hello,

adjusting description as stubbed WBEM proxy is in GIT and native WMI is no
longer required for installer part.

Still a valid bug though.

The pgwin32_is_service() source code snippet from PostgreSQL security/utility
library might be of interest as it resembles the check from WMI core service:

http://doxygen.postgresql.org/security_8c-source.html

We consider ourselves running as a service if one of the following is true:

1) We are running as Local System (only used by services)
2) Our token contains SECURITY_SERVICE_RID (automatically added to the
   process token by the SCM when starting a service)
--- quote ---

Which seems to bolster my analysis.
