+/* dot_lockfile_as 3
+/* SUMMARY
+/* dotlock file as user
+/* SYNOPSIS
+/* #include <dot_lockfile_as.h>
+/*
+/* int dot_lockfile_as(path, why, euid, egid)
+/* const char *path;
+/* VSTRING *why;
+/* uid_t euid;
+/* gid_t egid;
+/*
+/* void dot_unlockfile_as(path, euid, egid)
+/* const char *path;
+/* uid_t euid;
+/* gid_t egid;
+/* DESCRIPTION
+/* dot_lockfile_as() and dot_unlockfile_as() are wrappers around
+/* the dot_lockfile() and dot_unlockfile() routines. The routines
+/* change privilege to the designated privilege, perform the
+/* requested operation, and restore privileges.
+/* DIAGNOSTICS
+/* Fatal error: no permission to change privilege level.
