setgid programs



Hi!

MiNT 1.10 seems to be unable to run programs with setgid-flag!

To test this, I copied `rm' to my home and made a chmod 2755:
-rwxr-sr-x   1 benni    mail        29018 Apr 27 18:34 rm

In my spool dir, there is a lockfile, produced by elm:
-r--------   1 benni    wheel       31322 Apr 27 17:45 benni.lock

And the permissions of the directory are:
drwxrwxr-x   2 root     mail          320 Apr 27 18:41 /usr/spool/mail

So `rm' should be allowed to remove the file...
With MiNT 1.09 it works, with 1.10 it doesn't!
Why???
