  Modified files:
    sbin/init            Makefile 
  Log:
  use standard mode instead of 500 for /sbin/init.
  
  As discussed on -current, there is no sensitive info in /sbin/init
  to prevent reading it from non-privileged users, nor any reason to
  remove the 'x' bit as the first thing the program does is check the
  uid and exit if it is not run by root.
  
  Instead (and this is why i make the change), mode 500 prevents
  operation when exporting the partition without -maproot=0 to diskless
  clients.
  
  All previuos releases are affected by the same problem, so a merge
  to RELENG_6 at least would be appropriate (after proper re@ approval
  of course).
