That explains something. I was wondering why it does work for me, when I
cast qmail as root, but not when I cast it as user (which is su-ed
lately to be root).

It seems that when we 'su' by:

su  - -c  "DISPLAY=$DISPLAY PATH=$PATH  $0  $*"

the root's .bash_profile nor .bashrc is executed at all. And because
we're using 'su -', the variable is not passed to the subshell. So this
qmail can't be compiled when cast is invoked as a regular user.

The same problem is probably
