> 1) We need administrator privileges to modify the registry

We can work around this by turning off UAC on the bots. Another option would be to set up the post-mortem debugger registry keys manually, and have them look for a command file in a predetermined location on disk. old-run-webkit-tests could then write the command file to that location, and not try to modify the registry at all.

> 2) We need to set keys in WOW6432Node

We can achieve this by passing --wow32 to regtool.

> 3) Under Cygwin 1.7, crashes in applications launched by Cygwin are caught and ignored

It looks like Cygwin calls ::SetErrorMode(SEM_FAILCRITICALERRORS), which causes this behavior. We can work around it by calling ::SetErrorMode(0) when DRT launches.
