Not sure why on earth you would want to do this, but it seems to work
OK on etch. Maybe this is only supported with recent versions of
fakeroot?

brian@sys11:~$ echo $FAKEROOTKEY

brian@sys11:~$ fakeroot /bin/bash 
root@sys11:~# echo $FAKEROOTKEY
691495543
root@sys11:~# fakeroot /bin/bash
root@sys11:~# echo $FAKEROOTKEY
1885308766
root@sys11:~# exit
root@sys11:~# echo $FAKEROOTKEY
691495543
root@sys11:~# exit
brian@sys11:~$ echo $FAKEROOTKEY

Maybe the original poster may have typed in "fakeroot" by itself
without realizing it changed the environment.
