It doesn't matter how many times it happens, or how many hysterical raisins there are, it's still wrong behaviour. We can't change options under someone just because their compilation environment doesn't match our expectations. As Joshua says, this catches a lot of people out. We should put a warning in the INSTALL file to point out you have to have root privs to attach to port 80, but we should not be changing anything that is runtime configurable unless the user explicitly asks for it.
