How would I make my program check if it was root?
export USER=root' and, if the rest of the program is just as stupid, possibly cause some sort of security breach. It would also break with `su -p', `sudo' (with some sort of moronic configuration that keeps the value of $USER), or any number of programs that call `seteuid()' without updating the environment.
