My /usr/src directory is root:wheel - eg UID root, GID wheel
on each of the FreeBSD versions I have handy to look at which
includes 6.0.
Your daily security output may just be telling you that it
changed to something from the GID of 9 that it was the last
time it checked. I don't know of any other reason it would
point that out.
