As the title says. Context:

I run Xorg via xinit/startx, thus I need to have /usr/bin/Xorg setuid root for
Xorg to start at all.

I do this by uncommenting the Xorg line in /etc/permission.local that sets Xorg
setuid root.

Today there was a xorg-x11-server package update and it restored Xorg to
non-setuid. I had to 'chkstat --system /usr/bin/Xorg' manually in a shell to be
able to start Xorg.

Thus is would be nice if xorg-x11-server did this automatically in its
post-install script, for the few of us using startx.
