It was necessary to modify ExtUtils::Install in order to get it to work with 
setuid scripts.  Sorry I didn't catch this sooner.

Thanks,
Dennis

Here's a patch that allows the user to create a distribution that installs some 
setuid executable files and some plain executable files.  I haven't tested this 
on any operating system other than Linux, and I haven't considered the 
implications on operating systems that are not Unix variants.  I thought that 
I'd provide the patch anyway, though, in case someone else found it useful.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Dennis
