Thanks.

I thought about that, but as there's a second hunk to be guarded a couple
of lines later, we'd have to remember the result of the test in a variable,
and test for that there.  That's more code, so unless we're getting new
FPs on some platform, I'd go with the standard uid_is_privileged_ function.

Pushing soon ... unless there are objections.
Thanks again - also for testing, Nick.

Have a nice day,
Berny
