Well that is kind of expected, since it should operate on all processes
whose user real id matches the who parameter. I guess that the only safe
way how to test this flag is to:

* Pick unused user id and sets it as a real user id
* Start a few processes there
* One of them calls setpriority and checks that all of them got it
