The issue was that the maven assembly plugin doesn't treat <fileMode>644</fileMode> in the way I would have expected it to (-rw-r--r--) and requires <fileMode>0644</fileMode> to achieve the desired result. This didn't show up when I tested the distribution on linux as I ran it as root, for whom the samples run fine.
I have taken the opportunity to fix up properly the DISCLAIMER files that I manually inserted into this release candidate and to make a couple of minor tweaks of things I noticed while making these fixes. I will start another vote thread on a new release candidate RC4. Regards, Kelvin.
