The rmt protocol didn't allow to pass a file creation mode (permission

bits) along, and rmt did the wrong thing in calling open(2) with random
garbage as third parameter.  Make it create new files with 0666
(modified by the umask of the remote shell anyway).

This removed the last show-stopper from tar not working with remote
archives.
