> 03 setuid on binaries (easy fix)

This was upstream decision and I'd be careful to change that. On the other
hand, having the beast completely setuid really doesn't sound much sane to me.
What would you do with that? Use consolehelper? (well, you see, PolicyKit is
probably not going to happen ;)

File capabilities (man setcap) are afaik what should be used instead of suid
binaries if possible.
