Four files could be installed with the wrong ownership if apache was built as a non-root user.

           Summary: Four files could be installed with the wrong ownership
                    if apache was built as a non-root user.
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0-HEAD
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: adrianp@stindustries.net


The Makefile.in in the support/ directory on lines 18, 21, 26 and 28 uses 'cp -
p' to install four files (apxs, apachectl, dbmmanage and envvars-std).

If you do a non-privileged build then su to root and install, the files are 
installed as being owned by the build user not as root.

I think this problem has existed before 2.0.50.
