daemontools control over sophie not working any more since release 3.04

Hello List,

we are using sophie 3.04rc1/2 under the daemontools control for years 
without any problems.
Since the last update to release 3.04 there seems to be a significant 
change in the way how sophie handles subprocesses.
I read that sophie is now responsable for starting subprocesses which 
are run under an unprivileged user account. Does that mean that sophie 
now needs to be run as root to be able to change the user for the 
subprocess?
We never ran sophie as root so far. Under daemontools we always changed 
to an unprivileged user with the setuidgid command before starting sophie.
Is version 3.04 not compatible with daemontools any more? If so, was the 
change in source code absolutely necessary to work properly? What to do 
to make it work under daemontools?

Thanke You, Uwe
