After looking a little bit at the code, it:
- opens the systemwide scorefile
- drops privileges/group
so it's not so bad.

It also has support for user-scorefiles in ~/.typespeed if a
user-configfile is found, so it might not be so hard for force this mode
to be used - if we want to patch away the setgid flag.
