NAME
       dg_has_priv_euid - check for appropriate privilege based on EUID

SYNOPSIS
       dg_has_priv_euid event_name

DESCRIPTION
       The dg_has_priv_euid routine determines whether the calling process
       has appropriate privilege to satisfy the event specified by
       event_name.

       On systems where the capability feature is present, appropriate
       privilege is determined by comparing the effective capability set of
       the calling process with the capability list associated with the
       specified event.  The process has appropriate privilege if the
       capability list is a subset of the effective capability set.

       On systems where the capability feature is absent, the calling
       process has appropriate privilege if its effective UID is 0.

              process has appropriate privilege.
