proposed /sbin/init permission change

[Luigi Rizzo]

objections to this change to /sbin/init/Makefile
so that /sbin/init is installed with normal (555) modes ?

Using mode 500 makes it unreadable from nfs-exported
filesystems (as those that one can use in a diskless environment).

There is no privacy issue with the content of /sbin/init
to justify making it unreadable, and the first two lines

        if (getuid() != 0)
                errx(1, "%s", strerror(EPERM));

prevent non-root execution anyways.

BTW this would apply to -stable as well.
I have already made this request multiple times over time
(i think the first time was back in 1999 when i started
working with diskless environments) with no answer.

	cheers
