	File defining "listproc" has too wide priviledges for the
	taste of the router -- or its directory has..

	That "65534" is "nobody" in your machine, and "nobody" can
	run programs, nor write to arbitary file.  (Mailbox writing
	is ok, though.)

	How you define it ?   $MAILVAR/lists/listproc, or on
	$MAILVAR/db/aliases, or something else ?   Check file
	protection to be 644 or more restrictive, and directory
	protection to be 755 or more restrictive.

	These are configurable by editing   router/conf.c
	variables  filepriv_mask_dir, and  filepriv_mask_reg
	See associated comments.
