#18142: Wordpress should explicitly set the permissions on generated .htaccess
files

--------------------------+-----------------------------
After installing Wordpress 3.2 into a newly setup vhost, I let Wordpress
generate a .htaccess file with mod_rewrite rules for permalinks.
The vhost immediately served 500s since the newly created .htaccess file
was set to only be read/write by the vhost owner and the webserver process
could not read it at all.
Wordpress should not rely on the umask settings of it's install directory
and should explicitly chmod a generated .htaccess file immediately after
writing to the file.
