That's interesting, but rather odd, as it suggests that run as

just *happens* to have a *different* issue involving the same file
(since obviously, when run as root, it wouldn't have had any problem
accessing it). I don't suppose you kept a backup of the file? That
would be very helpful for investigating the problem...
Sorry, I am obsessive about backups of /home and /etc, but I do not backup
/var. I just ran rm on the file on all of my machines. In hindsight I should
have moved it away not rm.
