Permissions of /dev/raw1394 not as documented

[Dave Gilbert]

In /usr/share/doc/libraw1394-11/README.Debian it is stated that:

  The device file /dev/raw1394 will be created for libraw1394. This library
  is used by applications to access FireWire devices.
  The default access permissions allows only users in the "disk" group.

yet:

dg@major:~$ ls -l /dev/raw1394
crw-rw---- 1 root root 171, 0 2010-01-30 20:53 /dev/raw1394

I'm not sure if really that should be owned by disk (in which case I guess it's a udev problem?)
or if the docs just need changing - I guess it depends who you expect to be using it.

hmm, in Quantal I don't have a /dev/raw1394 any more anyway - hmm not sure where it's gone;
there is a /dev/fw0 :

crw------- 1 root root 251, 0 Aug 27 12:16 /dev/fw0
