(change_file_mode): Perform the chmod even if the
file mode permission bits are the same as those that should be set.
Omitting the chmod call would be alright with minimal 1003.1e DS17
ACLs, but eventually there will be other permissions in addition to
rwx. E.g., add and delete for directories, and something analogous
to NT's take ownership permission.

(main): Don't set the umask to 0 and hand-apply
the previously-set umask unconditionally. Do that only when a
MODE has been specified. Otherwise, call mkfifo with the full
creation mask (0777 or 0666) and let the kernel apply the umask.
The difference shows up only on file systems with ACL support
when the containing directory has a default ACL.
Patch by Andreas Gruenbacher.
(main): Rename local `symbolic_mode' to `specified_mode'.
Also, when MODE is specified, call chmod to ensure that the
permission bits are set as specified even when the containing
directory has a default ACL.

This is much more robust.
