2006-01-06No, we _want_ the suid and sgid bits reverted by chown, for security reasons.Rob Landley
They mean something different when the user they're switching to is different, so if you still want suid you reset it afterwards. This is a safety feature.

2001-04-25Move messages.c to libbb. Make each string in messages.c be its own .o file.Eric Andersen
