10.5: Join 'wheel' group as possible fix for system issues

I experienced the Preview problem with 10.3.9 -- on a multi-user machine there were Preview files in a locked folder and unless this folder was unlocked, Preview files would not open -- and displayed no error. When the folder was unlocked, all at once all the requested Preview files would open. Haven's experienced this so far since upgrading to Leopard.
