Not a native speaker, but shouldn't it be 'a' SUID binary... ?

I'm fairly sure it depends on how you pronounce the word in question (at least
when spoken out loud; not sure about when writing manuals).
I personally read SUID spelled out as "S U I D" (that is, "ess you I d", in
which case "ess" starts with a vowel sound, and so "an" would be used), though
I can imagine someone saying it as "a soo'd binary" (that is, where "soo"
starts with a consonant sound and so "a" would be used). Not sure which one
would be the most common.
