	-Stable definitely, probably -Current too. 

>Description:

	The man page for install says that it accepts symbolic mode flags. Start
with a file having perms of 777. Using the following command:

install -m u+rw,g+r,+X,o= test-file test-directory

should install test-file with perms of rwxr-x--- (750) but instead installs it with
rw-r----- (640). The identical arguments to chmod perform as expected. 

>How-To-Repeat:

	See above.

>Fix:
	
	Unknown.
