[Apologies if this appears twice.  I sent it several days ago and have
not yet seen it in the newsgroup.]

When Emacs creates ~/%backup%~, it is always with mode 666.  I would
like it to be mode 600, since the file being backed up may have come
from a directory more protected than the user's home directory.
