[PATCH] Only call loginrestiction on AIX if running as root

[Darren Tucker]

Hi All,
        I have found that the regression tests on AIX failed as a
non-root
user. This is due to a call to loginrestrictions() failing.

        The man page for loginrestrictions says:
"Access Control:The calling process must have access to the account
information in the user database and the port information in the port
database."

        These files are: /etc/security/user, /etc/security/login.cfg and
/etc/security/portlog, which are readable only by root or group
"security". 

        Please consider applying the attached patch, which calls
loginrestrictions only if running as root.

        With this patch, AIX 4.2.1 & 4.3.3 complete the entire
regression suite
without sudo.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
