I wondered too, so I poked into it a bit... last changelog entry:

* Tue Mar 29 2005 Petr Rockai <prockai@xxxxxxxxxx> - 4.0.2-8
- fix BR 150392 by implementing the setgid/utmp scheme for socket directory

And <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=150392>

Looks like it basically comes down to the "private tmpdir" issue....
