When I set any of these two in /etc/mach/conf it works as expected :

config['runuser'] = '/bin/su'
config['runuser'] = '/sbin/runuser'

Next test, this line :

config['fedora-2-i386-core'] = { 'runuser': '/sbin/runuser' }

When it's in my ~/.machrc the build fails as expected (since /bin/su is my
value in /usr/bin/mach and the expected value for FC2 to work), but when
it's in /etc/mach/dist.d/fedora-2-i386 instead, the build works.
