Actually yes... as of 4.4-RC, the following utilize setusercontext():
ftpd/ftpd.c:
setusercontext(lc, pw, (uid_t)0,
LOGIN_SETLOGIN|LOGIN_SETGROUP|LOGIN_SETPRIORITY|
LOGIN_SETRESOURCES|LOGIN_SETUMASK);
/* and code to reset */
rshd/rshd.c:
if (setusercontext(lc, pwd, pwd->pw_uid, LOGIN_SETALL) != 0)

::-) Do those use setusercontext() at all?
