That reminds me, that I still didn't fix this for a script I'm using
since > a year now.

[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ cat /usr/local/bin/chuser 
#!/bin/sh

# /usr/local/bin/chuser -> /.chuser/bin/chuser

xhost +
gksudo -u chuser "$*"
xhost -
exit

[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ ls -hAl /usr/local/bin/chuser
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Mar 26  2013 /usr/local/bin/chuser -> /.chuser/bin/chuser
                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I will fix it tomorrow.
