No changes in win32csr by me (none I actually committed; only in an 
offline local tree). Also plug-in loader is untouched (no docs: looking 
into it to understand how it works).

The major changes are:
- sm loads the required subsystems reading the registry
- csrss needs ok from sm to boot (registering)
- winlogon is child of csrss not sm (for future multiuser w32)

To do:
- DEBUG subsystem may be an external native process
- sm dies if any required subsystem dies (actually only win32)
- sm kills any subsystem that doesn't not follow the registration protocol

Maybe a race condition between win32csr.dll and winlogon? When it was 
run by sm it was done after csrss had notified sm signalling a named 
event to day boot was OK.
