Good point, EXCEPT, if you look at the hex-dump of cleanup2 it quotes, "Run as ro[ot]"...
Code:
 0000100 157 166 145 144 012 043 040 122 165 156 040 141 163 040 162 157
           o   v   e   d  \n   #       R   u   n       a   s       r   o

So there must be a reason why it needs to be run as root.
Just an observation.
