Yeah, see, the problem with trying to fix stuff by setting permissions
to 777 is that Berkeley is always creating new files -- those log
files you saw one of -- and those new files are not gonna be 777. So,
if your repos access is misconfigured such that you require 777 to get
it to work, you can bank on it becoming busted again the minute a new
logfile gets created.
