Permissions on a SCO Unix exported file

fP programs are SUID, not SGID.  Groups are -wholly irrelevant- for the
purposes of fP, given the stock permissions.  Do not depend on them, do not
expect them to be honoured by fP.

Most people think the defining traits of human beings are intelligence,
speech, writing, or creativity.  The sad reality is that the most singular
defining quality of humanity is cruelty.  No other species appears to be so
able and willing to inflict pain on its brethren for no logical reason.
