[issue2565] Cannot serve using daemon mode ("-d" switch)

[Morten Fæster <bugs@mercurial.selenic.com> at mercurial.selenic.com]

New submission from Morten Fæster <faester at gmail.com>:

I cannot use the internal web server using the daemon mode. I have tried 
using both normal user rights and elevated as an administrator. The stack 
trace is displayed below.
