Why not put "the effective user ID" and "the real user ID" under separate bullets?
It feels a bit weird that the list goes over each field separated by a space but then we stumble upon some special field of format "foo bar baz1,baz2,baz3"

Split the entry into three bullets

This looks great to me, thanks for fixing this!
