OK some progress.
It appears to be the debian helper dh_fixperms that is resetting the
modes (I have proved this using --execlude tmp/pmlogger to dh_fixperms).
So the questions is ... did dh_fixperms change recently (google says
no), or is there some PCP change that has undone or unmasked the way
this was being "fixed" before?
The way to fix it appears to be in the pcp.postinst script ... does that
seem "right"? I'd like to do it there, as I suspect I'm going to need a
chmod pcp.pcp ... there also.
