Description:
The following files have incorrect file permissions after unpacking the mysql-5.0.81-aix5.3-powerpc.tar.gz file:

sql-bench/README (has executable flags)
tests/grant.pl (missing executable flags)

(This was not so in mysql-5.0.77-aix5.2-powerpc.tar.gz; note the different aix5.2 architecture though.)

How to repeat:
Unpack mysql-5.0.81-aix5.3-powerpc.tar.gz and view file permissions with 'ls -l'.

Suggested fix:
chmod a-x sql-bench/README
chmod a+x tests/grant.pl

...for future packages/versions.
