Kestrel Beta N build: Win32

Just to clarify: there is a bug in java.exe and javaw.exe such that when
copies of them are installed in the winnt\system32 directory they do not
work. It is a trivial bug to fix, but perhaps not worth delaying
the beta release for. The work-around is to always use the copies of these
files that are installed in the jre\bin directory instead.

(I don't know if anyone has reported this bug into bugtraq yet.)

In order to get around this problem just remove java.exe/javaw.exe under system32 directory.
