But the worker still runs at root:

root     15617  0.0  0.1  89816  3404 ?        Sl   00:37   0:03
/usr/sbin/cherokee-worker --admin_child -C /etc/cherokee/cherokee.conf

I did a make&&make install one, the first, without
--with-wwwuser/wwwgroup and the second with both params. Maybe I need
to distclean the sources and the recompile?
