Subject: [bug#61462] [PATCH v2 01/10] system: Disallow file-like setuid-programs.
Date: Sun, 16 Jul 2023 01:59:51 +0200

It has been a warning for well over a year now.  Now, with
privileged-programs coming, don't let's support nested deprecation
hacks.

* gnu/system.scm (<operating-system>):
Don't ‘sanitize’ the setuid-programs field.
(ensure-setuid-program-list): Delete syntax.
(%ensure-setuid-program-list): Delete variable.
---

This is a quick snapshot of my rebased tree at the request of vagrantc.

There shouldn't be any functional changes.  If there are, that's cool too.
