2.2.8 source save set protections

There seems to be some minor issues with the backup save set for the 
sources.

It appears that the backup save-set has some of the source files 
protected world write access.

Also it appears that /INTERCHANGE was not used when making the saveset.

If you are making a BACKUP saveset for distribution, /INTERCHANGE is 
needed so that the binary security identifiers that may be unique to the 
site are not recorded on the backup copy.

Also, can the you tag zip file and backup save set name with an 
identifier to indicate which sub release it is for?  This will make it 
easier to determine if people are running the current version.

Something like samba-2_2_8_JYC_009-src would help.

Thanks,
