SUID What does this mean?

When repairing permissions I'm getting this warning:
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
What does it mean?
Thanks
Pedro

This may not be accurate but it's what I've learned about OSX/Unix'y type stuff:
SUID means Super User ID and therefore this application runs with elevated permissions.
Repairing permissions is done via database of installed packages on OSX.
The Login update changed the file indicated but the permissions database either doesn't know how to fix this or doesn't yet hide the message from the user or doesn't know if it's correct...hence it reports a warning.
