 I build as root on a lenny machine and as non-root on ubuntu-9.04
 http.test httpold.test socket.test consistenly fail on the non-root build
 and work on the root build.

 I checked first that compilation log are the same as they should. Then I
 moved the entire compiled tcl package from one machine to the other.

 If I move the compiled tcl (using a tar) on the machine where I compile as
 root and run the tests as root, they work.

 If I do the reverse and move the compiled as root package on the machine
 where I compile as non-root, the three tests fail.

 So I conclude that those 3 tests need to be run as root.
 I think that should be noted on chap5.11 tcl that those test will failed
 and the reason.

 If you try to replay what I have done, you need to adjust unix/Makefile to
 match the new place of the package.
