I good solution for this kind of stuff is to just build a queue, either file
or database. WHen you need to do a system type function you add that command
to the queue, then have a cron job that runs (which can more safely run as a
provolidged user), verifies that the function is ok and processes the job. If
you have PHP compiled in CGI mode you can write the script in PHP otherwise
you can do it in perl or bash or whatever.
