On a detour from the setuid X problem, I wanted to play with Linux
capabilities.  But the simplest possible example from libcap README
fails:

root@matica ~ # getcap /bin/ping
Failed to get capabilities of file `/bin/ping' (Operation not supported)
root@matica ~ # 

Any idea what could be wrong?  It looks like the kernel code is always
built in nowadays - there is no kernel build option or loadable module
that I might have forgotten.
