(VS2) Version 6.3B: attach

System type, version:	(VS2) Version 6.3B
System name:		lycus
What's wrong:

When attach creates multiple directories to make a mount point, the
extra intervening directories are created mode 777:

[{1}lycus:/priam]
% attach -m /foo/bar/baz/quux -e priam:/tmp
priam:/tmp: NFS mounted PRIAM.MIT.EDU:/tmp on /foo/bar/baz/quux (read-write)
ls -lR /foo
[{1}lycus:/priam]
% ls -lR /foo
total 1
drwxrwxrwx  3 root          512 Sep  8 14:16 bar

/foo/bar:
total 1
drwxrwxrwx  3 root          512 Sep  8 14:16 baz

/foo/bar/baz:
total 1
drwxrwxrwt  2 root         1024 Sep  8 14:10 quux

/foo/bar/baz/quux:
total 47
-rwxr-xr-x  1 2931        47104 Sep  7 13:59 machtype
-rwx------  1 11573         236 Sep  8 14:08 tkt_ttyp1
[{1}lycus:/priam]
%

What should have happened:

attach shoudn't make the extra directories world- or group-writable.
