Okay, that is due to:

#if defined(HAVE_GETUID) && defined(HAVE_GETEUID)
    /* There should be no way to get to this spot while still carrying
       setuid privs.  Just in case, bomb out if we are. */
    if(getuid()!=geteuid())
      BUG();
#endif

Seems that there are changes in the capability system of 2.6 compared
to older kernels.
