SECURITY
     pure-quotacheck switches real and effective uids/gids as soon as  possible.
     Root privileges are never given back.
     pure-quotacheck  refuses to scan directories with uid = 0 (root) or gid = 0
     (wheel/root) .
     pure-quotacheck performs a chroot() call to the home  directory.  It  never
     traverses parent directories.
     pure-quotacheck only scans real files (no socket, no pipe, etc) .

     ple doing chmod 0 before a quota scan.

     write the .ftpquota file.
     pure-quotacheck never scans the same inode/device pair twice.
