$ su
% kill -STOP $$
where su is executing (t)csh. csh's job handling is a little more
special than that of (a)sh, bash and even zsh and blows up a little
more spectacularly. This modification restores the original mucking
about with the tty pgrp, but is careful to only do it when su (or
su's child) is the foreground process.
While I'm here, fix a STDERR_FILENO spelling as suggested by bde.
su isn't the foreground process. Hopefully this won't break PAM,
but I couldn't find any useful information about ache's theory
that it will.
Specifically, this change fixes the following:
# sh
# echo $$
# su - root -c id &
# echo $$
The PID output changes as su seems to be kill -STOP'ing itself
and catching the parent shell in the process. This is especially
bad if you add a ``su - user -c command &'' to an rc script!

suggest to the user that it should be setuid, or should not be
running from a file system mounted nosuid.

normally succeed (because root can su to anyone), but pam_acct_mgmt()
will most likely fail, causing su to log a confusing "pam_acct_mgmt:
error in service module" message. To avoid this, call getpwnam()
before pam_acct_mgmt().

sometimes, su will receive a SIGTTOU when parent su tries to set child
su's process group as foreground group, and su will be stopped unexpectly,
ignoring SIGTTOU fixes the problem.

- if operating "as them" (su -l), use pam_{open,close}_session()
- allow PAM to override $HOME (pam_chroot needs this)
- chdir early, because later on we may be chrooted and chdir will fail
Also use pid_t instead of int where applicable.
signal never affects su directly, some shells changes its pgrp at running
or suspended time, so a broadcast SIGTSTP from child will mess up su's job
control.

traditional process properties.

The remaining problem of converting highly incompatible pointer types
is done by "laundering" the value through a union.
This solves the problem (in my own mind) of how a "const char *" _ever_
actually gets a value in a WARNS=2 world.
