From what I've seen for Postfix, a chmod is done on the socket so that it is group writable. If Postfix is running under a different UID, that is the only way to solve the permissions issue. The stats and debug files would only be writable by the Postfix group in any case. The risk would be low. Still, we only need dkim-milter to write to those files.
