Tested against 4.5-RC1 and -CURRENT, both on i386.
     
>Description:
/usr/ports/games/quakeserver-1.0 is set up to run the server as 'nobody'
at boot time, presumably to avoid running as a user with write access
to anything. However, the port installs its files as the user
nobody, bypassing any possible protection from running as the
nobody user.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install the port, then cd into /usr/local/quakeserver and
'ls -ld' and 'ls -l'.
>Fix:
I have patched the port to 1) Install with default root:wheel ownerships
where possible, 2) use group membership to provide write access to
the few things that need it, and 3) create a specific runtime user
and group for the server.
