    Odd.. mine is set to mode 700.  And I'm quite sure I didn't chmod it
    myself.  Tested on a 10.0.4 system (but I installed 10.0.4 today, and
    the times reported by ls -l for both . and ./Desktop are to initial
    install/10.0.3 update era).  So there's something more to it - perhaps
    a different configuration setting someplace?  Maybe it's because I installed
    10.0 on top of a 9.1 system that had folder sharing turned off?  I don't
    know....
