stab;e/14 fails to delete r/o files in obj

Hi,

a machine recently got updated to 14.3-STABLE FreeBSD 14.3-STABLE
stable/14-1821af77efef GENERIC amd64.


It seems there is some change in behaviour; this is on ZFS in case that
matters:

% pwd
/tank/users/bz/git/FreeBSD/freebsd-src

I normally run:

% rm -rf ../../../obj/tank/users/bz/git/FreeBSD/freebsd-src

for my MAKEOBJDIR if I am building a different branch (main vs. stable/14
as make clean does not do a proper job in that case).


This no longer works successfully:
...
rm: ../../../obj/tank/users/bz/git/FreeBSD/freebsd-src/amd64.amd64/tmp/usr/include/curses.h: Permission denied
rm: ../../../obj/tank/users/bz/git/FreeBSD/freebsd-src/amd64.amd64/tmp/usr/include: Directory not empty
rm: ../../../obj/tank/users/bz/git/FreeBSD/freebsd-src/amd64.amd64/tmp/usr: Directory not empty
rm: ../../../obj/tank/users/bz/git/FreeBSD/freebsd-src/amd64.amd64/tmp: Directory not empty
...

% ls -l ../../../obj/tank/users/bz/git/FreeBSD/freebsd-src/amd64.amd64/tmp/usr/include/curses.h
-r--r--r--  1 bz wheel 101351 Jul  4 00:37 ../../../obj/tank/users/bz/git/FreeBSD/freebsd-src/amd64.amd64/tmp/usr/include/curses.h

I do not understand why a rm -rf would not delete them even if
read-only but get a permission denied?
