More generally: what problems are you trying to solve here? If this
code causes some problems, please describe them, and let's see whether
and how we should fix them.
This code is in its present shape for the last 25 years at least, and
in all that time I don't think we ever had any complaints about the
mode bits of the auto-save files. So if there's no real-life problem
here, I see no reason to change code that is stable for so long.
