    i don't think it's actually useful to check the euid. HOME is supposed to match the real uid, and setuid programs better make sure that this holds true (not that setuid with kde libs would be particularly good idea to start with).
    
    if you are concerned about the extra getuid calls, you could pass this in an (optional) parameter.
