- Set files to be patched to 0644 if they are 0444, set back after.
- Issue 31: In an environment that uses the Lustre file system, it's been seen that any files that are set to 0444 (read only) will cause fatal filesystem errors when the patch is attempted. This makes using perlbrew to install perl on these systems impossible This change detects read-only files about to be patched, sets them to 0644 for the duration of the patching, then sets them back to 0444 so that they exist as expected during the actual build process.
