ircd-ratbox 2.2.x needs write permissions to the directory containing
these files so it can manipulate their temporary counterparts during
the update process. To facilitate this, and to save the user from
having to make this change themselves, the '/usr/local/etc/ircd-ratbox/'
directory is now set to be owned by the IRCD user instead of root.
