Is the <subj> broken right now?

I upgraded to current as of Mar 8, but only rebooted to the new
kernel today.

First, contrary to what the manpage says, an ordinary user can no
longer run idprio.

Should I file a PR?

Now, something less obvious. I run rc5des (start it as myself, then
make it idprio as SU). The machine slows down more then it used to
under the same conditions. Top reports the rc5des' nice level as 31:

CPU states:  1.1% user, 97.4% nice,  1.1% system,  0.4% interrupt,  0.0% idle
Mem: 3444K Active, 38M Inact, 14M Wired, 5112K Cache, 7620K Buf, 1656K Free
Swap: 96M Total, 3320K Used, 93M Free, 3% Inuse

  PID USERNAME PRI NICE  SIZE    RES STATE    TIME   WCPU    CPU COMMAND
  729 mi       101  31  1060K   292K RUN     14:53 97.35% 97.35% rc5des
  424 mi         2   0  4216K  3392K select   0:54  0.38%  0.38% Xaccel
  824 root      29   0   820K   760K RUN      0:00  0.84%  0.31% top
  455 mi         2   0   264K   496K select   0:00  0.04%  0.04% xload

Load is 1.44-1.55 -- it was at the strict 1.0 before, unless I was
running something else that was cpu. hungry.

My machine is Pentium 90 with 64Mb RAM. The swap is only used for 3%
right now.

Thanks!
