:Hmm.  If the project needn't be installed setuid-root, then maybe this should be

    Well, the project is primarily targeted towards linux and they tend to
    install a lot more suid programs then we do in order to allow certain
    programs (such as those manipulating a CDRom, DVD, floppy, etc..) to be
    run from userland.  It's probably easier for us to just patch it.

    In anycase, the work is appreciated!
