 > Kathy and I have confirmed that file mode is lost inside dmg2mar during
 the 7z extraction step. Unless there is a 7z option to preserve this, it
 is probably a bug in 7z. In the short run, maybe we can:

 As part of the OS X signing process, we are creating `*-signed.tar.bz2`
 files containg the code signed OS X bundles, and we have a script that use
 them to create the .dmg files. Rather than using the dmg files (and 7z to
 extract them) as the source to create the code signed mar files, we should
 maybe use the `*-signed.tar.bz2` files instead.
