I changed it to mask out the same bits as done in dir_lookup.

No, O_APPEND, the O_*SYNC flags, and so forth, are all meaningfull.

It seems my assumption of Rolands patch being in the debian tree is
wrong.

Hrm.
O_WRITE is surely better than O_WRONLY, but they are equal in fact.
And the implementation of dir-mkfile.c in libdiskfs always turn
