If you can get the file designator, you can call fchmod(fd,0777).
In C you can get that from a FILE* with fileno(file). I would guess
C++ has a similar call on its streams, but I don't know what.

well using ofstream to make the file and then close, reopen it to get
an fd, fchmod and close... seems abit of non trivial disk using time..
so.. i was hoping there is some ofstream open() call that i didn't
know of that can actually accept file access flags like the open() fn
in linux.
