Affected version: v1.37 prior versions might also be affected. 
Tested platforms: FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD and Linux.  

Debian unstable's snes9x 1.39-1 packages do not have setuid set by
default.  I dont have any resources to check stable.

The version distributed with the Progeny package set is 1.29-2.  These
are also not set as setuid root.

Please, next time state the exact distribution you are testing against,
'Linux' isn't descriptive enough.
