Bug 507375

Description of problem:
With F-11 (freshly installed) mock I can no longer build packages in mock, every time mock crashes with "permission denied".

Even if I remove my user from the mock group and enter the root pw in userhelper, I get permission denied:

Why has root no permission to create /var/lib/mock/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/result?
