The permissions passed to open have nothing to do with
unix permissions at all - they only apply to internal
REBOL restrictions on the use of the port. REBOL tries
to open the file with the access methods you specify.
If you request a form of access to the file that its
unix permissions don't allow, the open will fail.
There is no way to _set_ unix permissions from within
REBOL whatsoever. That functionality will probably be
accessable from REBOL/Command, when it comes out.
No, I don't know when REBOL/Command will come out :(
