possibly related question for you. What are the implications
in letting mdconfig/mount_mfs available to the general
user (or suid) instead of making them restricted to root only ?

Apart from a few places where the buildworld scripts try
to do an 'install' (but i believe the uid/gid to install
with can be tweaked), i think this is the only part where
the building of {Free|pico|nano}bsd require to be run as root.
Am I missing something ?
