Tiny patch to configure.in to remove chmod -f option


From: Sam Kendall
Subject: Tiny patch to configure.in to remove chmod -f option

On several Unixes, including

   * HP-UX 11.00 and 11.11
   * SGI IRIX64 6.5
   * DYNIX/ptx 4.4.8 (the Unix put out by Sequent, which is now owned by
     IBM)

chmod doesn't understand the -f option.  This leads to the configure
script crashing.

The patch is to remove the -f option.  On a couple of other Unixes I
looked at (Solaris 7 and AIX 4.3.3), the only effect of -f is to
suppress warning messages.  So I think this is a pretty safe patch.
