Hello,

Sorry, I was wrong, you have found a genuine bug. It is the same in 1.4.32
and 2.0.x. I have reopened the github issue.

I think I know what the problem is and will try to have a fix soon.
The nature of the problem is that, once fixed, the next backup created
will have the correct permissions.

Thanks for your good testing!
