This is a followup from Bug#11912.

The defcustom dired-chmod-program is no longer used by dired or any 
derivative. It is now used only by ange-ftp-process-file.

I suggest marking dired-chmod-program as obsolete (or removing it), and 
changing ange-ftp-process-file's (or (bound-and-true-p 
dired-chmod-program) "chmod") to simply "chmod".

Obsoleting it sounds like a good idea to me.  Perhaps Michael has some
comments on the ange-ftp change; added to the CCs.

I don't know whether somebody uses dired-chmod-program in
ange-ftp. Obsoleting it would be OK; let's see who protests.

Best regards, Michael.

OK; I've now made the variable obsolete (and removed the one usage).  I
did not remove the comments in wdired about it, since Paul's patch in the
other bug report does that.
