>Description:
If i use the defaults rundir /var/run, the start-dccifd will chown
/var/run from root:wheel to dcc:wheel. I think this is not useful
for other programs! Usually this directory should be owned by
root:wheel.

Sure I have altered my configuration to use /var/run/dcc/ instead,
but by default the port will "damage" the system. It would be nice,
if this can be avoided (for example by altering rc startscript and
default dcc config?).



>How-To-Repeat:
Install dcc-dccd-1.3.50 from ports, activate dccifd in rc.conf and in /usr/local/dcc/dcc_conf ... or simply look at /usr/local/dcc/libexec/start-dccifd (line #183)

>Fix:
several solutions, i do not know what is the best for all:

A) change rundir in makefile to /var/run/dcc and let it patch all following files (rc script, dcc_conf, ...)

B) fix the error where it comes from...
