New submission from Jeroen Demeyer <j.deme...@ugent.be>:
In Makefile.pre.in, there is this:
# Shared libraries must be installed with executable mode on some systems;
# rather than figuring out exactly which, we always give them executable mode.
# Also, making them read-only seems to be a good idea...
INSTALL_SHARED= ${INSTALL} -m 555
Installing libraries read-only is very non-standard (I'm not aware of any other
build system which does that). Python should just use the more standard 755
install mode.
