Summary: os.chmod failure

Initial Comment:
When running on Linux and accessing a FAT partition, os.chmod fails with 
otherwise sensible partitions:
>>> os.chmod("/media/IHP-100/Test.lyx", 400)
>>> os.chmod("/media/IHP-100/Test.lyx", 600)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
OSError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/media/IHP-100/Test.lyx'
The only thing that seems to be allowed is `4'.

Why do you think this is Python's fault? os.chmod() is only a very thin
wrapper around the OS' chmod().
