Looking at libgnomesu code, it looks like it supports both su and pam as
privilege escalation methods. And, apparently, none of which can be used on the
paranoid level.
Anyway, I wonder why, when getui() == 0, gnomesu doesn't just do an execv() ?!
Either way, Vincent, do you this is worth showing an error window? I mean,
gnomesu is rarely used via the command-line, so any error message should also
be shown in a window...
On the other hand, libgnomesu seems to be lacking maintenance, and, without the
supervision of someone knowledge of the code, I'm worried I might introduce
some fatal bug in the process of adding an error window there.
