Thanks.
I have committed the following fix upstream which should resolve this issue.

commit ac5678dd9b67995a84bf2348d82e641d7895415e
Author: NeilBrown <ne...@suse.de>
Date: Mon Feb 1 10:22:38 2010 +1100
Add test for "are we running as root".
Most operations require root access. Rather than ensure we generate
the right error message when something fails because we aren't root,
check early.
Note that "--examine" does not necessarily require root, so test
for that first.
