13539	Feature patch - python bindings - remove errant executable bit from library file	Gary Buhrmaster	Bill Meek	"Feature patch - python bindings - remove errant executable bit from library file.

Remove the execute bit from ttvbXslt.py in the source code.  As a library file to be imported, it does not need to be executable.  Indeed, the setup.py that is invoked as part of make install installs the file without the execute bit in my tests (typically into .../site-packages/).

The proposed patch removes the execute bit from the source file itself (no other library file in the bindings/python directory is set executable, only scripts which are intended to be installed as executable).

Really (really) trivial/low priority/severity source cleanup ticket (but ticket protocol says I should not set the priority/severity for new tickets, so it ends up being minor/medium, sorry).


Some history of the execute bit status on this file that I have researched:

6f13458f3e2947b884217057d3b741554d67fd2b - June 2010 - file originally added as non-executable

b5de4d167013b787cd024ea610f738440b7e2b67 - August 2010 - file executable (accidentally?) as part of a larger fix

d1da17e6bb322028c21acf02bf9cca139a60e5fa - September 2010 - removed the errant executable bit from the library file

774f0d3ee833039f42f368685a5360b98f55e801 - July 2011 - (contributed patch) added the executable bit back (accidentally?) as part of a larger patch series
