The patch won't help in MacOS X. We should document somewhere what functionality
will not work in MacOS X with a reference to perl bug -- perl#24122 and the
discussion at
http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2003-10/msg00495.html

Should we create a spamd/README.MacOSX file?

Looking at patch... What about the following code in spamd.raw line 670

  # Change GID
  $) = "$ugid $ugid";    # effective gid
  $( = $ugid;            # real gid

  # Change UID
  $> = $uuid;            # effective uid
  $< = $uuid;            # real uid. we now cannot setuid anymore

and line 1018,1364, 1507, and 1551: Do we know that $< == 0 and $> == 0 at that
point, or do we need some checking? Those three places all say:

    $) = "$gid $gid";                   # eGID
    $> = $uid;                          # eUID

Also, do we need to do anything similar for $) and $( ?
