X and xterm suid root in new X packages?



This morning I woke up to this cronjob message:

/etc/cron.daily/suidmanager:
/usr/X11R6/bin/X PERMISSION MISMATCH: was root.root 755 changed to root.root
4755
/usr/X11R6/bin/xterm PERMISSION MISMATCH: was root.root 755 changed to 
root.root 4755

I installed the new potato X packages last night.  Please tell me
others have seen this also!  If i'm the only one this happened to and
it's not the doing of the packager....  (shudder)
