Hrm. And you're not using LDAP or anything funky like that? Can you su
to paludisbuild normally?

According to the man page, setuid returns EAGAIN if "The uid does not
match the current uid and  uid  brings  process over its RLIMIT_NPROC
resource limit.". Are you using limits? And have you set excessively
low limits on paludisbuild?
