/usr was mode 775 in the 8.4 release (in both the /os and /srvd
volumes). The mkserv rule for creating /var/server/usr is "copy usr
-f"; without the -p flag, I assume the mode is set by the first copy and
never reset.
We could put a chmod command in a version script, or mkserv could be
changed to use "copy usr -p -f", although that wouldn't take effect
until the next patch release anyway. So I guess we're best off with the
chmod.
