This change illustrates a problem we need to be very careful to watch
for when doing this. The patch you've removed not only handles root
install but also handles stripping of the binaries.

Note this bit:

-+ifeq ($(IROOT),)
- chown $(DAEMON_USERNAME):$(DAEMON_GROUPNAME) $(IROOT)$(LFILE)
-- test -f $(IROOT)$(etcdir)/at.allow || test -f $(IROOT)$(etcdir)/at.deny || $(INSTALL) -o root -g $(DAEMON_GROUPNAME) -m 640 at.deny $(IROOT)$(etcdir)/
-- $(INSTALL) -g $(DAEMON_GROUPNAME) -o $(DAEMON_USERNAME) -m 6755 -s at $(IROOT)$(bindir)
-+endif
-+ test -f $(IROOT)$(etcdir)/at.allow || test -f $(IROOT)$(etcdir)/at.deny || $(INSTALL) $(INSTALLOWN) -m 600 at.deny $(IROOT)$(etcdir)/
-+ $(INSTALL) $(INSTALLOWN) -m 4755 at $(IROOT)$(bindir)

The -s option is removed from the install command.

Whilst we can remove the user ownership part of the patch, the -s option
needs to remain present as we expect unstripped binaries to be
installed.
