That seems to catch all the cases where there might be surprises.

Oliver pointed out there's already the PRIVILEGED option for this
purpose, which is set up before variables.  It's definition is a little

    opts[PRIVILEGED] = (getuid() != geteuid() || getgid() != getegid());

but that's probably good enough.
