The problem is related to the fact that MS Windows (at least, Windows
Server 2012) requires elevation for the execulables with names that
match the *patch*.exe mask. So, util_dynamic_type_disPATCHer and
util_static_type_disPATCHer require elevation.
I think that the easiest way to work around this problem is to rename
the tests. Or, you may put the manifest into the executables to
explicitly specify that they don't require elevation.
