these are coming from the original tarballs. We might have to pass
filter options to tar to prevent this. This would seem logical at this
point and the preferred fix as well to prevent this at all times.

doing a 'find / \( -perm -02000 -o -perm -04000 \) -ls' on my system
turned up a few strange hits. For those of you that do not know what
that command does, it bring back a list of all files that are setuserid
and/or setgroupid). The sXids that caught my eye were...
(note: output was cleaned up for readability)
...
drwxrwsrwx root:root Oct 15 2003 /usr/share/doc/ntp/conf
drwxr-sr-x root:root Aug 4 09:56 /usr/share/doc/firefox/README
drwxr-sr-x root:root Aug 4 09:56 /usr/share/doc/firefox/README/CVS
drwxr-sr-x root:root Aug 4 09:47
/usr/share/doc/firefox/README/mozilla
drwxr-sr-x root:root Aug 4 09:47
/usr/share/doc/firefox/README/mozilla/CVS
drwxr-sr-x root:root Aug 21 19:53 /usr/share/doc/cdrtools/doc
...
Can anyone else confirm these modules install the aforementioned files
as sXids? Does anyone know why they are like that? Should they be? I
would assume not, but there are always people that know something I do
not :)
There were a host of others too, but I assume they all have legitimate
reasons (passwd, ping, (u)mount, mail, write, et al)
