Oops. I didn't type clearly enough. postinst grabs all the files in
/usr/include/**/*.h and /usr/local/include/**/*.h and turns them into
*.ph files under /usr/lib/perl5/i486-linux/5.002. If the *.h files in
the original include directories are the correct permissions, then the
*.ph files will be correct also.
