Security fix! Correct handling of seteuid() return value
See Debian bug #638002, reported by John Lightsey.
When possible the (already available) set_euidgid() function is used.
Additionally, it is unnecessary to change the identity when writing
into an already open file descriptor.
This should fix the problem.

1 This is from libident 0.22 (though the version string says 0.21?). I
2 have not changed it, except that I replaced the Makefile with a
3 Makefile.am.
5 I also did not include the example programs and the man page in the
6 masqmail source tarball.
