The second one IMO. The client cannot possibly treat console handles
as opaque values, since it needs to know about the obfuscation/bit
manipulation; it also needs to cope with the STD_*_HANDLE
pseudo-handles. So it's much better to encapsulate all that stuff in
the client than to have the client do half of it and the server do the
other half.
