Since upstream hasn't changed the default yet, and for understandable reasons
it isn't high on their priority list, and because I'm tired of carrying the
Ubuntu delta that switches to --user by default, I am going to port the Ubuntu
patch to the Debian version.  This will let me resync to Debian and only have
to maintain one version.

Note that Didier's patch does add a --system switch which overrides the
default --user, so I think that should address any usability concerns.

Donald, I appreciate that upstream will do this Right And Better, and once it
does, I'll happily drop this patch.  I agree it kind of sucks that we have to
change upstream's behavior here, but doing so seems like the least worst thing
to do while we wait.
