The closest replacement for stretch's "su" (change PATH but do not change
working directory) is "sudo -s". If you want to replace the "su" in
this workflow:
make
make check
su
make install
... you want "sudo -s".
"su -" or "sudo -i" changes your working directory as well as your PATH.
In some cases, that may be desirable, but in others it's not.
