[jds-review] review: libgksu gksu freeses on locales CR 6517484

I mean fget(3C) will never come back because "su" command has no outputs after 
the localized string "Password:" is just ignored.

    while ( 1 )
    {
      bzero(buffer, 255);
      r = fgets (buffer, 255, infile);
...

      parse_embedded_su_output (context, buffer);

      switch (context->msg_type) {

        case ES_PASSWORD:
