BTW, a little further googling turns up the information that this isn't
OpenBSD-specific; there are a number of platforms where "su -c" doesn't
act like it does on Linux.  But "su username -c 'command'" works the
same everywhere.  I'll adjust the generic text as well as the OpenBSD
paragraph in light of this.
