>Description:
fts_read seems to use the permissions of the mount-point dir, where all other functions use the permissions of the mounted volume itself.

AFAICT, the permissions used by fts_read can't be displayed in any documented way, which increases the confusion.

This issue is likely the cause of Problem Report "bin/33235" as well.
