I remember a problem (more than a year ago) with amavisd-new which
"obeyed" original permissions of files in archives during extracting
them. I.e. it created temporary files with modes like "a-r" if the files
in the archive were such. Then it couldn't scan them. Obviously the type
of the files (gif, doc etc.) didn't matter. It was quickly fixed after I
reported it - thanks to amavisd-new developers :-).

So, it may be (or not) a similar situation.
