The permissions are set by the client to be the same as the enclosing folder. I
have had good luck instructing users to set permissions on folder they own using
the "Sharing..." window in the finder (under the file menu). MacOS only cares
about permissions on folders though....

This doesn't answer your question though, so if a more skilled admin knows how to
change the behaviour, please comment. Personally, I would like to set it so files
would inherit execute permissions even if MacOS doesn't know what to do with them.
