I received some additional feedback from David, which I have

Thanks to all for the speedy review!
So what's the pkg5srv user/group for again? Where do we use that?
This is used by the mdns depot server. It runs with the privilige of a
normal user, instead of becoming root and dropping its privs.
any reason your not just using the existing daemon/daemon uid/gid?
also, it seems like dropping privs would be good regardless on uid.
presumably you don't need privs to to fork/exec/access proc/etc.
perhaps an rfe?
The depot server currently requires fork/exec. If the mDNS server is
part of it, it too has the same requirement.
