How will this help the following code work on Windows, when the owner
of the file is reported as the Administrators group (whose ID is 544),
and the UID of the user who created the file is different (because she
belongs to the local admins group)?

  (or (eql (nth 2 (file-attributes FILE)) (user-uid))
      (scream-bloody-murder))
