That assumes that all executable files actually need to be executable, 
which is often not the case with pre-packaged binary tarballs.. you just 
get random png/desktop/jar/etc files (or even all files sometimes) that 
are 755.  Of course, there probably isn't any tangible harm in it, but 
it's at least annoying for the detail-oriented ;)
