Hm. It certainly tries to:
static mode_t adjust_mode(mode_t mode)
{
mode_t rmask = S_IRGRP | S_IROTH;
mode_t xmask = (mode & S_IXUSR) ? (S_IXGRP | S_IXOTH) : 0;
mode_t wmask = ~(S_IWGRP | S_IWOTH);
return (mode | rmask | xmask) & wmask;
}
What locker did you notice the problem with, so that I don't have to
create a locker for testing purposes?
