Perhaps a small addition to 'doins' for this case, which could be
made optional by adding a '-p' for "preserve mode" option. Untested patch
attached which could use some getopt mojo for flexible argument order.
Requires GNU fileutils >= 4.0 according to chmod(1). Portage internal
variables not entirely clear to me without RTFM. Portage hackers: please
suggest corrections.
