Bat does not need to be run as root, and I don't run it that way.

Please discuss this with Scott -- thanks.

Thanks for your patch.  I will apply the parts that apply to bat. It is really 
too bad that SQLite3 has this bug.  However, the solution is OK and does no 
harm and is a good way to work around their bug.

If you have a few minutes, it might be worthwhile to file a bug report with 
www.sqlite.org on this subject.

Best regards,

Kern
