Owner/permissions on system.reg etc

[Bill Medland]

Before I waste hours on searching through the code can someone answer this?

The way I like to run Wine is to have a single copy of system.reg and 
userdef.reg in a central location and then each user has a symbolic link to 
them (and the cached metrics) but a true copy of the user.reg.  (I know that 
this is not going to work if multiple users simultaneously access it).

However the ownership and permissions on the system.reg and userdef.reg change 
each time the wineserver runs.

Presumably wine is actually creating new copies and relinking and this is why 
the ownership etc. changes.  Would it be resonable at least to attempt to 
preserve the group permissions if not the whole ownership etc.
