CAP_SYS_PTRACE is extremely powerful, and seems to only be used for
debugging (reporting which executable was made RT).  I would prefer that
CAP_SYS_PTRACE was not included in the capabilities for this daemon.  I
do like that is chroots itself, though.

Additionally, I would prefer that it drop privileges earlier -- it opens
syslog, dbus, etc before dropping privs.  Can priv-dropping be moved
earlier?
