+/* WindowsCE uses a very strange way of handling the standard streams.
+   There is a function SetStdioPath to associate a standard stream
+   with a file or a device but what we really want is to use pipes as
+   standard streams.  Despite that we implement pipes using a device,
+   we would have some limitations on the number of open pipes due to
+   the 3 character limit of device file name.  Thus we don't take this
+   path.  Another option would be to install a file system driver with
+   support for pipes; this would allow us to get rid of the device
+   name length limitation.  However, with GnuPG we can get away be
+   redefining the standard streams and passing the handles to be used
+   on the command line.  This has also the advantage that it makes
+   creating a process much easier and does not require the
+   SetStdioPath set and restore game.  The caller needs to pass the
+   rendezvous ids using up to three options:
+
+     -&S0=<handle> -&S1=<handle> -&S2=<handle>
+
+   They are all optional but they must be the first arguments on the
+   command line.  Parsing stops as soon as an invalid option is found.
+   These rendezvous ids are then used to finish the pipe creation.*/
