I've tried changing privileges for a user and I'm not seeing that they get 
reflected in real-time while an application is running. Maybe I'm not doing it 
right, but I'm not seeing it. I'm also not able to find anything about that 
being supported or anyone else trying this...actually, there's very little 
privilege related info anywhere outside of "these are the available privileges".

I'll spend a little more time and see if I can channel any sysadmin types to 
see if they know anything about this. It's looking like we'll just have to try 
enabling on module loading and if it works, great, otherwise there's no 
os.symlink for the lifetime of the interpreter.

Attached is a patch that works safely on XP/Server 2003 where there is no 
symlink possibility. It still has that test_tarfile error which I'll get to 
next.
