the nightly security check suddenly showed a new setuid file:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:lib$ ls -l /usr/lib/libfakeroot-sysv.so.0.0.1 
- -rwSr--r--  1 root root 3196 2005-04-23 12:27 
/usr/lib/libfakeroot-sysv.so.0.0.1

I don't see anything in the changelog about this. It looks like a pretty
weird permission to set on a shared lib; shouldn't it at least be +x?
Also, is it really supposed to be LD_PRELOAD-able by suid programs?
[Though the ld.so manpage says setgid for this].
