su-someone - use your own password to switch to another user ID.

At our site, we have a few accounts that are managed by more than one
user.  Instead of giving away the password to an account "foo" we
install a set-[ug]id program, "su-foo", that allows a limited group of
users to work with the "foo" account after they have correctly entered
THEIR OWN password.

This program has been tested with SunOS 4.0.3 and Ultrix 3.0, but it
should also work with most other BSD-like UNIX implementations. The
only System-V variant I have tested with is Microport SV/AT 2.3.

More details are described in the Makefile and in the man page.
