Fix a mysterious
...
csh: Permission denied
csh: Trying to start from "/var/log"
message.
This was caused by the
su -m uucp -c "uustat -a"
line being executed in a directory not readable by uucp. The login
shell implied by -m is of course root's shell, /bin/csh, which doesn't
like not being able to read the dir it is in, and thus the errors. By
temporarily cd'ing to /tmp the problem is fixed.
What is really needed, of course, is a way to tell su what shell you
want to use explicitly, especially for use in scripts where the
vagaries of which shell the login executing the script uses should not
be depended on. No such method exists. One should be added.
Indeed, it might also be nice to have a way of telling su to directly
execute a command with -c rather than using a shell to interpret the
command.
I cannot find any standards documents that specify su at the moment,
though. SuSv2 is silent on su(8).

stylistic nit: dump -W, not dump W

Put the 'uustat -a' into double quotes.
...
It still doesn't work, but you won't get the error about an Unknown option: `-a'
anymore.
The login shell for uucp is /usr/libexec/uucp/uucico, so su -m doesn't work.
This needs to be fixed.

XXX note that this is supposed never to be uncommented due to a security
issue (see /etc/daily) but there is no reason to do things doubly wrong.
