I cannot reproduce this behaviour:

  # id
  uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),1(bin),2(daemon),3(sys),4(adm),6(disk),10(wheel)

  # ls -l /bin/ls
  -rwxr-x---    2 root     root        45948 Aug  9  2001 /bin/ls

  # exit
  $ id
  uid=500(birger) gid=500(birger) groups=500(birger)

  $ ls
  bash: /bin/ls: Permission denied

  $ /lib/ld-2.2.4.so /bin/ls
  /bin/ls: error while loading shared libraries: /bin/ls: cannot open shared object file: Permission denied

  $ uname -r
  2.4.18

  $ cat /etc/redhat-release 
  Red Hat Linux release 7.2 (Enigma)


So it has either something to do with the groups you're in (wheel?)
or grsececurity is doing something weird to your kernel - or its
both ;-)   - which means, no, I don't have grsecurity in my kernel
setup.  And be sure /lib/ld-2.2.4.so has no "s" bit set somewhere,
the default is 755.
