FreeBSD's version of install supports a flag (-U) that prevents it from changing permissions on already existing files. If this version could also support said flag, that would be great.

Do we still want to implement this flag? The bot has marked it as wontfix.

I think we can still implement this. We just need someone to make a PR :)
