Done.  No difference.  I verified the file writing worked in the cases where I
can run the executable.  When I get the "Permission Denied" error, the output
file isn't created.

The only barely unusual thing about this executable is that it has a function
with ASM code defined in it, although the function is never executed.  The
purpose of the application is to write out a binary file with the contents of
the function (and some other code).
