Mike, let's not start same old flame war. :-)  Let's ignore these
flames.  This was not my intent to start this thread.

Since this GNU "su" info page was famous, it may be a good idea to have
corresponding page displayed with proper historical description.  I know
current su comes from shadow and packaged into login.  

Current info page is manual page which lacks much of the information.

When you dropped info page from shellutils, why did not you move it to
shadow package with proper difference added?

PS: I like to keep rms message in that info page because it makes me
smile.
