While replying to the ISP question I thought I would share this bit
of information I found today after updating to Mac OS X 10.4.3 and
then running Disk Utility to repair permissions.
It reported a nuuber of permissions were repaired but upon running it
again it came up with the same list had been repaired, this I
repeated again and the same list came up.
Went to http://www.macfixit.com to find if anybody else was having
the same problem and found the reason why this is happening. Posting
the answer here in case others had the same problem.
Basically, if the files are listed in HintFile.plist, everything is
alright, you will just have to put up with looking at them everytime
you do a repair permissions.

Look in /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DiskManagement.framework/
Resources/HintFile.plist
You'll see all those files listed. These are override settings, which
tells Disk Utility to ignore the permissions in /Library/Receipts and
use these instead.
