   In this case, one option would be to try

   (let ((default-directory "/su::")) ...
   around rerunning the database.

Using the latter, I got the following error message while trying to
revert the *Locate* buffer (cut and pasted from *Messages*):

Loading tramp... [4 times]
expand-file-name: Recursive load: "/usr/local/share/emacs/22.0.50/lisp/net/tramp.elc", "/usr/local/share/emacs/22.0.50/lisp/net/tramp.elc", "/usr/local/share/emacs/22.0.50/lisp/net/tramp.elc", "/usr/local/share/emacs/22.0.50/lisp/net/tramp.elc", "/usr/local/share/emacs/22.0.50/lisp/net/tramp.elc"

The *Locate* buffer was not reverted.

Sincerely,

Luc.
