In the case where CHMOD is called with a numeric mode, the current code assumes that “mode_t” corresponds to an unsigned int. This is true on linux/glibc, but not true on macOS (where mode_t is an unsigned short) and thus creates a warning and possibly a runtime error. This had been spotted earlier on Windows and was corrected, but behind a __MINWG32__ check, although the fixed code is actually correct for all platforms.
I have thus committed the attached fix (revision 243796), removing the target-specific branch. Will work on all platforms now. FX
