OK, then everything is fine (stupid me, I didn't even remember our
mail exchanges....this bug is indeed why I asked you to join the
shadow team, Alexander). We can already put pam_env.so in
/etc/pam.d/su. This will not work immediately because of #287108 for
which we need to use upstream sources....and thus will be fixed when
we will use shadow 4.0.8 or above.

Bug assigned to you, Alex..:-)

So, Goswin, this will need some patience (look at shadow's bug log to
understand why) but this will be fixed.....promise made.
