Bug#651634: rpc.statd runs with gid=root



Package: nfs-common
Version: 1:1.2.2-4

richard@araminta:~/src/3rd$ ps -ef|grep statd
statd     2084     1  0 Oct11 ?        00:00:00 /sbin/rpc.statd
richard   6691 17917  0 18:34 pts/1    00:00:00 grep statd
richard@araminta:~/src/3rd$ head /proc/2084/status
Name:	rpc.statd
State:	S (sleeping)
Tgid:	2084
Pid:	2084
PPid:	1
TracerPid:	0
Uid:	103	103	103	103
Gid:	0	0	0	0
FDSize:	64
Groups:	

gid 0 is the root login's default group, making it potentially very powerful.
