Cherokee must be launched at root, otherwise it could not open the TCP 80 or 
its log files. Do not be worried about it, though. It drops its privileges as 
soon as those operations are performed.  If you check the user of 
'cherokee-worker' you will see that it is running under your user of choice - 
www-data, in this case.

Cheers!
