 Thanx.

 No.
 Blackdown Java and any of java environment (of Blackdown) seems to be *not*
 setuid or setgid.
 IBM's Java environment is not set uid or setgid,too.

 I wonder this issue is appeared  in XF86 4.2.0 (excepts pre1v3) and 4.2.1 
but not setgid/setuid, and this problem seemed to be fixed 4.2.0 pre1v3 
or older than 4.1.0 :-(

Best regards,
 Chan Chan.
