Yes, exactly.  I'm a bit surprised, though.  Can you make another test,
please?  Something like that:

$ echo foo > foo-rw
$ echo foo > foo-r
$ chmod a-w foo-r
$ touch foo-rw
$ touch foo-r

The question is this:  Do both touch succeed or does the latter touch
fail?  Even if it not fails, could you please try strace on both calls
to touch and see if you can find something like the above strace snippet?


Thanks in advance,
Corinna
