At least on my RELENG_4 box, getresuid() does seem to exist (although its man page does not). MFC'ing it to RELENG_3 probably shouldn't be too much trouble, though--it's a new interface to the same old information. > After that I tried using the converters and discovered that the > olefilter doesn't work because is uses libc_r.so.3 and we don't have a > version of that with __stderrp defined.

There's a libc_3.so.3 in compat3x, however, I haven't really followed the whole __stderrp mess, so can't say whether that's useful or not :-).
