Original submission:

mcedit always saves with the original mode of the file, even when 
"save as" is used. this leads to the bizarre situation that even 
after giving a read-only file a new name, it will be still 
read-only. in quick-save mode, this makes the file impossible to 
save after the initial save as.

This fix is wrong.

Suppose you have two files, foo and bar. Both files have 444 permissions. Now edit foo and "Save". It can't save and instead prompt you to "Save As". Enter bar. It will chmod bar to 644.

If we don't touch touch existing file permissions for "Save", I don't see why we should for "Save As".

Attached is a patch (against 4.7.0-pre1) which adds S_IWUSR only if different_filename and file does not exist yet. For consistency, it's S_IWUSR not S_IWRITE.
