 I am not able to reproduce your problem:
 
   wollman@khavrinen(1485)$ cc -O -Wall foo.c
 wollman@khavrinen(1486)$ ./a.out
 wollman@khavrinen(1487)$ ls -lo testfile
 -rw-r--r--  1 wollman  users  - 0 Apr 11 18:32 testfile
 
 I did fix a bug in your program; your call to open() was missing an
 argument.  However, this should have no impact on the file flags, only
 the mode.
