Description
Note that this will allow us to remove a hack we have in our code in the Windows installer:
<!-- Dependency plugin discards file permissions so we need to set them back manually. See http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-109 -->
<chmod file="${project.build.directory}/dependency/bin/windres" perm="ugo+rx" />
<chmod file="${project.build.directory}/dependency/bin/ld" perm="ugo+rx" />
