Here is the info from Apple in regards to the changes talked about in this thread..

Folder Permissions and Ownership

A number of folders in the System and Local file system domains now have different ownership and permissions. Specifically: • Many folders in the System domain that were previously owned by the admin group are now owned by the wheelgroup. • Permissions for the root directory (/) are now mode 755 (writable only by root) instead of mode 775 (writable by the admin group). • Permissions for /Applications/Utilities are now mode 755 (writable only by root) instead of mode 775 (writable by the admin group). • Permissions for /Library are now mode 755 (writable only by root) instead of mode 775 (writable by the admin group), no longer sticky. All subdirectories within /Library now have mode 755 (writable only by root) permissions instead of mode 775 (writable by the admin group) except:
        • /Library/Caches
        • /Library/Fonts
        • /Library/Java
        • /Library/QuickTimeStreaming
        • /Library/Receipts
        • /Library/Tomcat
The subdirectories listed above have the same permissions as in previous versions of Mac OS X (usually mode 775, sometimes with the sticky bit set). • Permissions for /Network/Applications and /Network/Library are now mode 555 (unwritable even by root) instead of mode 755 (writable only by root). • Permissions for /var/log/DiagnosticMessages are slightly more lax, with mode 770 (writable by the admin group, unreadable by non-admin users) instead of mode 750 (writable only by root, unreadable by non- admin users).
