[Distutils] EasyInstall: scripts aren't executable?

[Ryan Tomayko]

So EasyInstall wrapper scripts don't get any executable bits set when  
installed. Was this an intentional omission or just oversight?

Note that you won't see the problem if the script already exists with  
+x when it is installed.
