This issue was already discussed few weeks ago on this list.

In default configuration, this issue is not exploitable because a call 
to setuid(2) could fail only for non-root user. Anyway setuid(2) return 
value must be always checked and I guess this issue was fixed in HEAD 
and probably in RELENG_6 ?

Sincerely,
    Clem
