   1 /*@ S-nail - a mail user agent derived from Berkeley Mail.
   2  *@ Privilege-separated dot file lock program (WANT_DOTLOCK=yes)
   3  *@ that is capable of calling setuid(2) and change its user identity
   4  *@ to the configured PRIVSEP_USER (usually "root"), in order to create
   5  *@ a dotlock file with the same UID/GID as the mailbox to be locked.
   6  *@ It should be started when chdir(2)d to the lock file's directory,
   7  *@ and SIGPIPE should be ignored.
