Replying to [comment:4 ver]:
> Why would you set a file mode to r-x if you never check the w? What is
the point of IsWritable() otherwise? To tell me I passed THIS flag when I
called my BFile constructor? :/
How does a different function call in another place in the program that
may have to deal with many different BFile pointers know which flags a
given one was opened with? It doesn't, hence those accessors.
