These are new permissions added to 1.6. If an application is targeting anything below API 4 (1.6), they will automatically be requested because in 1.5 and lower there was no restriction on these operations. As of 1.6 these permissions were added, and if you target API 4 or later you need to explicitly request the permission in your manifest to be granted it.
