63Some kernels have a bug that prevents setuid #! scripts from being
64secure. Some sites have disabled setuid #! scripts because of this.
65
66First let's decide if your kernel supports secure setuid #! scripts.
67(If setuid #! scripts would be secure but have been disabled anyway,
68don't say that they are secure if asked.)

147Some systems have disabled setuid scripts, especially systems where
148setuid scripts cannot be secure. On systems where setuid scripts have
149been disabled, the setuid/setgid bits on scripts are currently
150useless. It is possible for $package to detect those bits and emulate
151setuid/setgid in a secure fashion. This emulation will only work if
152setuid scripts have been disabled in your kernel.
