A few months ago I ran some 'find' to check what kind of permissions were in
use.  It appears that all files were publicly available except for mistakes. 
I also don't see why people would use a mirrorable download area to store
private files (and people don't).

At that time I had fixed all permissions that could cause a rsync replication
to choke.  Maybe we need to do that again, I'm not sure yet.

I think that at a point we asked mirror maintainers to use --ignore-errors,
I'm not sure what the status of this now? Anyway, I think it is better if we
don't use that option and fix permissions instead.
