/* Notes:
 *   Setting an absolute priority was obsoleted in SUSv2 and removed
 *   in SUSv3.  However, the common linux version of renice does
 *   absolute and not relative.  So we'll continue supporting absolute,
 *   although the stdout logging has been removed since both SUSv2 and
 *   SUSv3 specify that stdout isn't used.
 *
 *   This version is lenient in that it doesn't require any IDs.  The
 *   options -p, -g, and -u are treated as mode switches for the
 *   following IDs (if any).  Multiple switches are allowed.
