            Bug ID: 194201
           Summary: [x11-wm/spectrwm] When switching user to root using
                    su(1) you can't jexec in a jail

I have a spectrwm running with XTerm open. Inside the xterm I use su(1) to
switch to uid 0. If I try to enter a running jail using jexec I ran into an
error:

# jexec 1 /bin/csh
Cannot open "/usr/local/lib/libswmhack.so"


An other problem, with probably the same reason, is that you can not install a
jail inside spectrwm using "bsdinstall jail /any/path". Also having switched to
uid 0 using su(1). bsdinstall throws a error when it should ask for the root
password.


Am running spectrwm V2.6.0 installed from official repo using pkg on a amd64
FreeBSD 10.1RC1

Thanks
