GTK explicitly doesn't support being used setuid or setgid, and if SDL
loads and initializes GTK, GTK will exit the process if it
detects a setgid executable. This is incompatible with the historical
practice of making game executables setgid in order to write out a
shared high-score table on multi-user systems (which is security theatre
at best, because typical game runtime libraries are not hardened against
an untrusted caller, but making it regress would be a user-observable
regression in sdl2-compat).
