What does this have to do with having the tmp dir's as global read?
It's important that the journal file be preserved between reboots.
If the power fails you can then recover the database using the journal.
If your code has to go on one of the linuxes(linuxii??)
that follow posix/LSG standards you'll want to know how to make
it work correctly on those machines.
Mandriva 2006 has a daemon (not sure what the name is) that checks the
permissions of certain folders, in this case /var/tmp, usr/tmp, and /tmp and
sets them to aforementioned settings if anything changes, so it's not like I'm
out in left field with the permissions set up the way they are.
I don't know about Mandriva's tradeoffs of following standards vs preventing
data theft.
