AFAICT they are installed using $(install_data), so get reasonable perms, e.g.:
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ../../trunk/gcc/coretypes.h
/g/users/cgd/proj/gcc-trunk/bld/../inst/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux/4.5.0/plugin/include/coretypes.h
FYI, IIRC there are a few files that get built/installed with the
umask of the person doing the build.? This is probably is a bug in the
build/install process (IMO at least), but is easily fixable by using a
'good' umask when building.? (the files whose permissions I fixed,
OTOH, came from umask at *checkout* time... somewhat confusing, and
the way the makefile installed the rest of the related headers was
obviously different so IMO there was an obvious fix to make.? I've not
looked into other issues, my *build* scripts set a good umask.? 8-)
