It appears that this bug has environment dependencies.

In my environment, I (Suse 10.0; Gome 2.12.0) I get identical result for each of
the follwing user inputs to the su password dialog:
1. Correct password. 
2. User clicks "cancel"
3. Bad password.

In each case the file is NOT created and no error message is printed. Exit code
is 4.

 $ xdg-su 'touch foo.txt'; echo $?
 4
