As others have said, compile as ordinary user, run make install or make
modules_install as root, or run "sudo make install". Another reason for
running "make install" as root, is that root privilege is also required
to create the device nodes (/dev/rtheap, /dev/rtp*) needed by Xenomai
applications.
