This is the setting you get when you use a decimal 644 to set an octal
permission, eg 644 decimal gives you 1204 octal, which gives you the bogus
w,r,T setting....

This is a bug in the install script, some programmer botched it up ;)

You can safely make it 644 if you want. Btw, the trailing T is totally
meaningless to linus as it's an invalid file mode for a normal text
file...
