10.5: Join 'wheel' group as possible fix for system issues
Authored by: Zeitkind on Tue, Apr 8 2008 at 12:10PM PDT

Well.. just look into my old G3/G4-system, updated from 10.1 to 10.5 over the years, and the main admin account is member of wheel. Other, later created admins are not member of wheel. Not sure if I - for ever what reason - put myself into wheel long ago or if it is vanilla setup.
