Done so now. Attached are two versions of a patch to fakeroot.c. In
netfs_get_dirents(): call netfs_attempt_chmod() before dir_readdir() to
make sure that directories are accessible (executable) before changing
the underlying files. The resulting directory (and file) access
permissions are the same as with fakeroot-tcp and Linux.
The first patch adds S_IXUSR to real_mode, the other adds O_EXEC to
nn->openmodes. Your choice (if OK, of course, maybe I've missed
something.)

Thanks!
