Yes, the problem is still there.

>From my laptop, I use the [Connect to Server] item from [Places], and
select "FTP (with login)", then double click the network folder icon
that appears on the Gnome Desktop.  It opens a dialog form that I fill
in with my user name and password, and then click through to my home
folder on the desktop machine, across a private LAN.

When I copy a file from here to there, it does NOT strip the X bits, but
when I copy one from there to here, it does.  Perhaps this is by design?
Or could it be the FTP server doing it?  I'm using vsftpd on the remote
end, and the "local_umask" configuration option is set to "022".

I wonder if there is something like a umask setting for GnomeVFS?
