Revert maintainership to ports@FreeBSD.org since previous maintainer
has done nothing with this port, despite four separate PRs over six
months.

In addition, the PLIST is unsorted, and the shared library is still
using a.out major/minor numbers, and is generally otherwise a mess.

forth (all with a "g" prepended to their names). With the approval
of the submitter, I've disabled the suid bit on gsu by default,
with a note to users that they should review the philosophy behind
GNU su:
Why GNU `su' does not support the `wheel' group
===============================================
(This section is by Richard Stallman.)
Sometimes a few of the users try to hold total power over all the
rest. For example, in 1984, a few users at the MIT AI lab decided to
seize power by changing the operator password on the Twenex system and
keeping it secret from everyone else. (I was able to thwart this coup
and give power back to the users by patching the kernel, but I wouldn't
know how to do that in Unix.)
However, occasionally the rulers do tell someone. Under the usual
`su' mechanism, once someone learns the root password who sympathizes
with the ordinary users, he or she can tell the rest. The "wheel
group" feature would make this impossible, and thus cement the power of
the rulers.
I'm on the side of the masses, not that of the rulers. If you are
used to supporting the bosses and sysadmins in whatever they do, you
might find this idea strange at first.
