 stunnel 4.27 on i686-apple-darwin10.0.0 with OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009

 The default stunnel.conf configuration attempts to start stunnel in a
 chroot jail at /opt/local/var/lib/stunnel Because the directory is owned
 by root, it's unable to do so. I've included an example of the default
 permissions and the correct ones.

 The script that installs stunnel flags /opt/local/var/lib/stunnel as

 drwxrwx---  3 root  admin  102 Nov  4 21:39 stunnel/

 when it really should be

 drwxrwx---  3 nobody  admin  102 Nov  4 21:39 stunnel/

 I'm not sure if classifying this as a defect is correct, but it's pretty
 easy to fix in the installation script and will save the end user some
 headache with getting the application working correctly.
