Looks good, but..

I would really suggest just defaulting to

	mode = 0444 & ~mode;

since there simply is never any reason to allow a writable pack-file.

The fact that we have some tests that try to corrupt a pack-file is not 
really a reason. Just make them do "chmod +w" before corrupting it.

But your patch is an obvious improvement regardless, so I certainly don't 
think this is a *big* issue.
