Hi
No, 0755 is not explicit - it is ambiguous with people that are
explicitly using printf %#3o to output a 3-digit octal string with
leading 0 - I don't think we can change this.

But my suggestion of 00755 _is_ explicit - after taking off the leading
00755 is working here. I can live with that :)
0 for specifying octal, you are _still_ left with four octal digits
which includes the sticky bit explicitly being set to 0.
Thank you
 Cheers
