I have been trying to make mythfrontend run as SUID root, but can't

I have already done chmod a+s /usr/local/bin/mythfrontend, but still
when I launch, I get interruptions when the computer runs an apache
request and I still see it using usleep in the term:

You are probably running one of the distributions/kernels that no longer allows threads of the same process to have different effective UIDs. I have an idea of how to fix this (have one realtime-priority video output thread that's reused) but need to find development time to fix it. If someone who is running such a distribution/kernel has more motivation and gets to it before I do, that would be lovely.
