Jörg doesn't consider this a bug, we've had this discussion a few days
ago. "If you have proper access permission to write, opening /dev/hda is
not a problem, and if you can access /dev/hdc without privileges, you
got a security problem".

Makes me wonder about set-group-id flag then, the little sibling of
set-user-id.
