Hi Shuah,

Can you take the patch as is or by removing following from this patch:

- if (geteuid() != 0)
+ if (geteuid())

As Aleksa mentioned, geteuid() != 0 is preferred.

Don't print that 88 sub-tests are going to be executed. But then skip.
The error is printed that executed test was only 1 while 88 should have
run:

Old output:
TAP version 13
1..88
ok 2 # SKIP all tests require euid == 0
# Planned tests != run tests (88 != 1)
# Totals: pass:0 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:1 error:0

New and correct output:
TAP version 13
1..0 # SKIP all tests require euid == 0

I think having total number tell you how many tests are there.
I don't this this is good change.

thanks,
