I guess that is a regression with the introduction of the skeleton
packages for those test suites.  I am open to suggestions for solving
this and I know this can cause issues for people in Ubuntu (that uses
0007 as I recall).
  Maybe we should just do a "chmod -R $stuff" after rsyncing the
skeleton, turning all files into 0644 and dirs into 0755?
