For some reason I thought you passed the torch -- maybe because of all the (excellent) pccard work and by-laws pushing. :-) Sorry. > I'll have to look into this. I think the check in ld.so predates > issetugid() Possibly. rtld-elf is younger than issetugid, but probably it was started from the a.out rtld, which used the same style check (as our current rtld-elf). At any rate I'm convinced after looking at issetugid's use in the resolver, and thinking about it. I don't see that any (legit) functionality would be lost by using issetugid, so I'll go ahead and change it. Feel free to tweak if you learn something different, but I think this horse is dead. And do have a look at rtld-elf -- I suspect it is the same type of oversight.
