I think all permission changes are version controlled.

But last I knew there was a bug that if the only change to a file is 
permissions, it is not detected.

Use "touch <filename>" to update the timestamp, and then the permissions 
will show up.

There is another problem if you are using hard-linked trees, but I'm 
guessing you are not. The short answer is with hard-linking, changing 
the local also changes the revlib, and this revlib corruption was not 
detected (again, this may be fixed).
