w32-get-true-file attributes is set to nil in my case. I tried setting
it to local, non-nil and nil in turn with the following results:
(i) with netlogon service - delayed Emacs startup as reported in the bug
for each of the values
(ii) without netlogon service - Emacs starts instantly in all cases
I use the binary build which probably isn't meant for debugging. Also my
experience in using gdb is limited, but if provided with a debug build
and instructions on what to do, I can at least attempt.
