Hmm. That change should not have had to go in. shutil.copytree() *does* try
to copy the permission information. It calls os.chmod() to do so. (it also
copies the timestamp)
Are you sure it wasn't copying the mode bits, and it is simply that the
Apache process needed the a+rw ? i.e. your source files didn't have the
right permissions?
Basically, I'm suspicious of this change. I'd tend to be at a -1 on it
without knowing more about the source and destinations perms that you were
trying to achieve.
