So the "one" concern I have would be to use (isDev || isReg) instead of
(!isLink) - if only to CYA that something new bool isn't invented that
would also not need the chmod.  IDC, I'm fine with it this way - your
call - just figured I'd point it out.

I'm also OK with printing the permissions "0%o" that failed ;-)
