In "su" as distributed, you can avoid the logging in /usr/adm/sulog
by typing "su root". (I'd call it an administrative hole rather than
a security hole, since of course anyone who becomes root can edit
out his su-ing anyway.) I've fixed that, speeded up the startup
and improved the logging format. Anyone who wants the revised version
of su, let me know.
