I noticed that the `make install` ran chmod on /usr/include/*.h. and
this may be why checkinstall included the file. I think the
installation script just copied some *.h files to /usr/incldue, but too
lazy to write each each *.h a chmod statement.
I would say this is un-acceptable if that's the case.
