No, he has to actually SET ROLE to the superuser account to make himself
a superuser. SUPERUSER and the other non-GRANTable attributes of a role
don't inherit through mere membership. This is partly an implementation
limitation but I happen to think it's a good idea ... superuserness is a
mighty big hammer to be letting loose accidentally.
