That was a really good idea, I've just write "fake_chmod" VFS module 
that intercept chmod (and friends) invocations and return 0 without do 
anything.

This module works perfectly. I tested it with nautilus and the final 
rights on the file are like expected. I haven't tested on win7 yet but I 
think that it should be the same behaviour.

Thanks for your idea,
Bruno
