:Hmm. If the project needn't be installed setuid-root, then maybe this should be
:pushed back to the author? He should change the perms used by his install target.

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!
