Subject: [PATCH] Lower CAP_SYS_NICE from the ambient set
The capabilities wrapper raises CAP_SYS_NICE into the ambient set so it
is inherited by the wrapped program. However, we don't want it to leak
into the entire desktop environment.
Lower the capability again at startup so that the kernel will clear it
on exec.
