Just a note: In 2.0.0-0.2, creating a file using touch on the root of
one of my drives resulted in the with the Windows GUI Security tabs
complaining about ACE order on the resultant file.  In 2.0.0-0.3,
Windows does not complain and the ACL looks quite a bit different
(shown below).  Not sure if this is a problem or not --- just wanted
to report the difference in case your fix had an unintended side
affect.  Given my heart skips a beat when I see DENY ACEs, I like the
new behavior behavior better.

v: BUILTIN\Administrators:(OI)(CI)(F)
