Another question I have is why pmcd.conf gets install 444.  This is a
config file that can be edited.  The general standard for config files
is 644.

There is no good reason for it to be mode 444 ... it is simply a
historical accident.


actually, it is installed as 0644, but later pmdaproc.sh changes
it to 0444. I've committed the fix to pmdaproc.sh.
