'install' will install files with permissions set to '0755' if the
permissions are not specified on the command line.  Having the execute
bits set on non-executable content is not desireable.  Specify mode
0644 for non-executable content as well as specify mode 0755 for
executable content (in case the defaults change or are different on
different systems).  Also tell 'install' to preserve timestamps.

Thank you. I updated the patch to install HTML files with explicit
permissions.
