            Bug ID: 207807
           Summary: mountd: mountd.pid file is not readable by normal
                    users
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: ruben at rubenkerkhof.com

I have a daemon running as a normal user, that runs /etc/rc.d/mountd status
once in a while to check if mountd is running. /var/run/mountd.pid is only
readable by root however:

% ls -l /var/run/mountd.pid 
-rw-------  1 root  wheel  5 Mar  8 14:33 /var/run/mountd.pid


It's not that it contains secret information ;)
Can those permissions please be changed?
