Nope, the output of cygserver doesn't indicate anything.  And the normal
log output is missing since it's still gone to the event log.
Btw., you can start cygserver under administrator account in a console.
That's sufficient from the user rights perspective and you can easily
redirect the log which goes to stderr then by default.

Well... that's even less helpful with no debug symbols in the binary.
