Subject: [PATCH] Remove the half-hearted attempt to make the utmp helper
 process drop privileges just before dying of a fatal signal. I'm not sure
 what I intended it for in the first place; it certainly isn't doing its job
 properly (no setgid), it's causing compiler warnings due to not checking the
 setuid return code, and we can't think of any useful purpose for it.
