the root user. This switch ensures that the binary is installed
setuid when <command>make</command> is run by an unprivileged user.

<command>cat &gt;&gt; /etc/sysconfig/createfiles...</command>: This
command creates the <filename class="directory">/tmp/.ICE-unix</filename>
and <filename class="directory">/tmp/.X11-unix</filename> directories at
startup, and ensures that the permissions and ownership are correct as
required by the server.
