[Bug 1030534] [NEW] "sftp -r remotedir ." creates directories with wrong permissions

[Dan Kegel]

Public bug reported:

The local directories created by 
   sftp -r remotedir .
are unreadable by anybody, so when it tries to create anything in them, it fails.  Example:

$ sftp -r user at host.com:foo foo
user at host.com's password: 
Connected to host.com.
Fetching /foo/ to foo
Retrieving /foo
Retrieving /foo/www
mkdir foo/www: Permission denied

This is with Ubuntu 12.04, openssh-client       1:5.9p1-5ubuntu1

This is the second time I've ever used sftp.
