Ah.

One needs to comment out the "EXPOSED_USER" variable -- i.e., make it  
look like:
	dnl # EXPOSED_USER(`root')dnl

Thanks, guys! I think I'd have banged my head on this one for a long  
while, because it would work for all users *except* root, and I was  
testing it as root (and actually need it to work for root, too).

best,
Jeff
