I wouldn't normally recommend a setuid fix (for security reasons) but it appears that this is how it's intended to work. You'll probably want to read through source and verify that there are no obvious exploits before setting this permanently or maybe report a bug so that the package maintainer can do the dirty work .

Shutdown options can also be enabled by editting /etc/enlightenment/sysactions.conf.
