i've solved this by adding the user that does updates (i.e. me) to a special
group of users which have write permission over /src and /386...

it's a bit more complicated than that and is definitely not easier than
doing a disk/kfscmd allow, but ti avoids having the system in an unprotected
state.

the idea i got from /adm/users on sources.cs.bell-labs...
