+It seems likely to me that this NFS server is just broken. Why would a
+well-designed NFS server behave this way, rather than letting a chmod
+override the xattr that was set earlier?
+
+I considered filing a bug report on coreutils or something about cp
+preserving the NFS xattr leading to this problem, but since it seems likely
+to be the NFS server on the NAS that is at fault, didn't think that would
+be productive.
+
+If you did manage to reproduce that behavior with a regular
+linux NFS server, it seems like it would be a grounds for a bug on some
+part of linux..
