Richard,

If you go to the properties of mkisofs,cdda2wav,and readcd,in 
/usr/bin/ and click on permissions, and place a X in set UID 
and Set GID,then,

[root@localhost root]# xcdroast -d /dev/scd0


no ** WARNINGS ** at all,

However,

X-CD-Roast dialog window shows
error reading audio track 1/20

0%Fatal error:  did not drop group privilege.
2%child reader sem request failed

W Child exited with 1

and so while this seems to cure the setuid warnings,
it does not enable an audio cd write in xcdroast,
that must be a seperate problem here .
