This is getting a bit off-topic, but the permissions on /dev/fd/1
do not matter very much. This is because every process has a different
view of the /dev/fd namespace.

Anyway I have come up with something quick and dirty which works
regardless of the permissions on /dev/stdout - this will be in the
next release.
