RE: [Evolution] 1.4.5 fails on HPUX 11.00 with: seteuid (first referenced in camel-lock-helper.o)

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

I found out that ximian has some patches for hpux that never got sent to us .. .ugh, although the patches are not really acceptable for inclusion since they're just to make it build on hpux, not to make hte code portable).

Neither is this unfortunately, it should be based on an auto* feature test, and not on a platform test (i.e. 'do we have setuid' not 'are we hpux').

I couldn't find a posix equivalent scanning man pages ... one is BSD and the other is HPUX :-/  (so given this, maybe we can just use this code *shrug*).
