Comment (by jmckenna):
"In r1027, r1028 and r1029 I have added a hacky "--safe" mode that skips a
bunch of win32 calls related to administrative capabilities. This safe
mode can be turned on with the --safe commandline switch to setup. I would
consider making this the default, but I don't really understand what the
code I'm disabling does.
The changes can be seen at:

Tamas, I'm uploading a new osgeo4w-setup.exe. I'd appreciate it if you
could test it sometime on win64 (passing the --safe switch) and see if it
works.
My debugging conditions on my test win2003 server were very painful
(remote desktop over a very high latency link) so I did not try and do a
good job of debugging, just hack around the problem code. Further analysis
of this problem will be needed some day." --frank
