New submission from Michael Felt <aixto...@felt.demon.nl>:
Two tests in test_pathlib test that the files created have mode o666 (rw-rw-rw).
However, on a filesystem (in my case NFS) configured to never permit global
write - the test will always fail.
Is this something to be concerned about?
I can think of a few possible ways to react to an exception such as this, e.g.,
rather than 'FAIL' outright, try umask(2).

Just to verify it does work when on a 'local' filesystem.
cp -rp build /tmp/build
