The module does not envoke hook_perm at all, and thus never adds the permission of "maintain own role control" to the permissions page at all. Seeing as that is vital for the functioning of the module, this is definitly a bug.

I have hand coded the modification, and it seems to work fine now. Patch pending.

To see if it is working, go to the permissions page and see if there is the "maintain own role control" option under the category of "role_control module" If so, then the patch is working, add the given permission to roles to allow them to modify their role in order to view the content (or subscribe to an email list in my case - using this in conjunction with mass_contact)

@Ninja Overlord,
I'm unsure how I missed this initially, and how it's gone so long without complaint, but as I've been working on other projects and haven't upgraded to 6 yet I guess it makes sense. Thanks for your quick patch, and for catching this. I've rolled it into the 6-dev version, should be live in a day or so if things are working as the used to.
-Elliot

Not a problem - that's how an open source community works, right?
