There is currently something very nasty in the permissions
column in the file OtherFilesToCopy.csv

Until version 2.6 of python, there appears to be no convenient
way to convert a string like 0755 into an octal. I am therefore
using integers to specify permissions of the copied files...

420 is 0644
493 is 0755

This is horrid, and must change in the future...
