I create a few files with permissions of 444, and have been doing 
various things with them... they always come back read/write as expected.

It's actually quite hard to create a read only permission line - it 
implies someine edited a file, made it read only then committed it, 
which is pretty rare (I'm not at all sure even that's enough to do it). 
  All the examples I had were from -kc and -kx tests which are always 
read only anyway... took some hand editing to create a test set.
