>Description:
The /etc/weekly script does not restore permissions of /var/db/locate.database
back to 0664, cf.:
http://nxr.netbsd.org/source/xref/etc/weekly#69
http://nxr.netbsd.org/source/xref/etc/Makefile#303

Install the system, the permissions of /var/db/locate.database are 0664, run
/etc/weekly, the permissions are 0644.
