I suppose that is possible.  By default the normal stdin is used, so maybe  
the OS makes the decision on inheritance based on whether it is used or  
not.  Clearly it works for some people...

Did you try SetHandleInformation directly on that handle?  It's still  
slightly possible that some other call caused the exception while this one  
was being thrown.
