I like to use the run-uid and run-gid options.

This always works out to be a hassle getting all the file ownerships and 
permissions secure and correct.
It's particularly tiresome when upgrading by a minor version undoes that work.

Even when I run it as root I still get some small problems with permissions 
because my roots umask is 077

Would it be a good idea to have the run-uid and run-gid as Makefile options?
Set to root as default of course - but it would be _really_ great if I 
could just set those and have everything set correctly by a simple 'make 
install'
