nixpkgs/pkgs/os-specific/linux/shadow/su-name.patch
Eelco Dolstra 18f565e290 * Apply a few patches to make su' behave more like the old su' from
coreutils:

  - Don't remove variables such as $PATH and $SHELL from the calling
    environment (from upstream).

  - When su is invoked with command line arguments for the shell
    (e.g. "su - -c 'cmd'"), set argv[0] in the shell to "-su" or
    "-<basename>" (as determined by the SU_NAME option in
    /etc/login.defs).  This is necessary to make Bash compiled with
    the NON_INTERACTIVE_LOGIN_SHELLS option to read startup files.

  - Don't set $PATH to /bin:/usr/bin but inherit the $PATH of the
    caller.

When su is invoked with command line arguments for the shell (e.g. "su
- -c 'cmd'"), set argv[0] in the shell to "-su" or "-<basename>" (as
determined by the SU_NAME option in /etc/login.defs). This is
necessary to make Bash compiled with the NON_INTERACTIVE_LOGIN_SHELLS
option to read startup files. It is also consistent with the
behaviour of `su' in coreutils, and with the case where there are no
arguments ("su -").
