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.

| meillo@59 | 6 |
| meillo@59 | 7 If you compile for Debian, do the configure with at least these options: |
| meillo@59 | 8 |
| meillo@59 | 9 ./configure --with-liblockfile --with-group=mail |
| meillo@59 | 10 |
| meillo@59 | 11 Use the group `mail' instead of the group `trusted'. |
| meillo@59 | 12 |
| meillo@59 | 13 You can also build your own Debian package with |
| meillo@59 | 14 |
| meillo@59 | 15 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot |
| meillo@59 | 16 |
| meillo@59 | 17 You need to have fakeroot installed to do this. Or, as root, do: |
| meillo@59 | 18 |
| meillo@59 | 19 dpkg-buildpackage |
