The workaround for this is something like:
chmod gu+s /usr/lib/mount.davfs-2.6

But maybe this is dangerous because of the bug reported here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=310757

Perhaps this should be mentioned in README.Debian, since it conflicts w/
upstream behavior of seteuid?

Also, mounting as another user is made difficult by the permissions on
the pidfile. I get an error:

Could not open pid-file
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp# ls -l /var/run/mount.davfs/ -ld
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 2005-09-14 03:34 /var/run/mount.davfs/

I get around this by:

chgrp users /var/run/mount.davfs/
chmod g+w /var/run/mount.davfs/

All of this may be dangerous on a multi-user machine.

peace,
