[issue17222] py_compile.compile() explicitly sets st_mode for written files

[Armin Rigo]

Armin Rigo added the comment:

Can someone confirm the answer to Arfrever's original question: a seemingly innocent use case of py_compile.compile(), which works fine until Python 3.3, when executed as root, can in Python 3.4 fundamentally break down a complete Posix system in a non-obvious way?
