NetBSD planet-zorp 1.2 NetBSD 1.2 (ATHENAOTHER) #13: Sun Nov 10 03:22:41 EST 1996     ghudson@the-light-fantastic:/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/netbsd/release/athena-7.7.2/netbsd-1.2/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/ATHENAOTHER i386

>Description:
	krb4/in_tkt.c uses setreuid, which is marked as deprecated in
	the NetBSD libc, so any time you link a program against libkrb4,
	you see:

	in_tkt.o: warning: this program uses setreuid(), which is deprecated.

>How-To-Repeat:
	build any program that uses the krb4 libs on NetBSD

>Fix:
	The NetBSD setreuid man page suggests using `seteuid' if you
	want to swap the real and effective uids.
