Ping? Also wondering if it makes sense to go ahead and implement our own "cap_to_text" and "cap_from_text" to generate capability strings from the bitmaps (and further remove dependency on libcap.) I think it does, considering we now already have our own list of valid capabilities and the constants come from kernel headers (or missing.h), it makes sense to have more of our own routines...
