Possible kludg" follows.  The squeamish may wish to avert eyes... :)

How about if the cache manager marked the fileStatus entry
as 'fetchedUsecurely' and dropped the suid/sgid mode bits when
storing it and then if an authed user is referencing it, flush
the entry and refetch it securely?

How miserable would this be to implement?
