.SH SYNOPSIS
string geteuid( object|function );

.SH DESCRIPTION
If given an object argument, geteuid returns the effective user id (euid)
of the object.  If given an argument of type 'function', it returns the
euid of the object that created that 'function' variable.  If the object,
at the time of the function variable's construction, had no euid, the
object's uid is stored instead.
