Why does the signature even have to be different between the two to begin
with?  I _think_ you have gid_t over there, although you might not have
"struct passwd", in which case you can just define an empty one that your
alternate implementation is not going to use anyway.  This is especially
true if you are making the "drop-privileges" part a helper function, no?
