 Look at the file /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.root.dist.  That's where the
 default permissions for /root and /mnt are kept.  If you want to make
 local changes to files under /usr/src and still be able to use CVSup
 to update them, you can always make a collection of local patches in
 say /root/patches and apply them manually after CVSup'ing with a
 script similar to:
 
 	#!/bin/sh
 
 	cd /root/patches
 	for fname in *.diff ;do
 		cat "${fname}" |\
 		( cd /usr/src ; patch -p0 )
 	done
 	cd /usr/src
 	find . -name \*orig | xargs rm
