This is a known issue, currently under investigation. It's (somewhat
incorrectly) being tracked by the pginstaller bug tracker, because
that's where it was first added. Bruce, can we get this one on the open
items as well? "Fix shared memory on Win2k terminal server".

Glen - can you confirm if this happens only on terminal server in
"Application Mode" or if it also affects "Remote Administration Mode"?
