Interesting - the test case I wrote for this was failing on Linux as well. Same 
fix worked both places, though (i.e. ensuring S_IWUSR is always set on .pyc 
files so they can be updated properly)

2.7 update incoming, we'll see what the Windows buildbots have to say before 
doing anything to 3.x.

(Kevin: I didn't end up using your patch, as I decided it was simpler to just 
create the files with the user's write permission set. This doesn't weaken the 
security, as any attacker running with the user's privileges could just change 
the permissions anyway)
