Nothing major, but why do we treat bbackupctl as a system program and 
bbackupquery as a user program? They both need to run as the bbackupd user 
(usually root). And raidfile-config should probably be an sbin too.

Also, I think all the package scripts in contrib/ will have to be updated 
as well.

Cheers, Chris.
