Note: No need for [BUG] prefixes -- they are prefixed automatically by
bug#NNNNN and the bug tracker is either for bugs or patches, and the
latter has the [PATCH ...] convention. No harm though.

'chmod' is not mentioned anywhere in (guix scripts style), so I'd think
it's just an oversight. The authority on the matter would be Ludovic
Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>

my non-existent 'votes'.
