bug#318: 23.0.60; on Mac OS X permissions of group-writable files are displayed with red w

[Peter Dyballa]

Hello!

GNU Emacs explains to me (after following hypertext links from *Help*  
buffers) that dired-perm-write face comes out of dired.el, from these  
lines:

	(defface dired-perm-write
	  '((((type w32 pc)) :inherit default)  ;; These default to rw-rw-rw.
	    ;; Inherit from font-lock-comment-delimiter-face since with min- 
colors 8
	    ;; font-lock-comment-face is not colored any more.
	    (t (:inherit font-lock-comment-delimiter-face)))
	  "Face used to highlight permissions of group- and world-writable  
files."
	  :group 'dired-faces
	  :version "22.2")

I am pretty sure that I neither have some MS stuff on my lap nor a PC  
in use ... so why do I see these red w in drwxrwxr-x or -rw-rw-r-- ?
