I think this "file" is all the installer files (*.pkg) in 
/Library/Receipts/. There is one slight problem that I wish Apple 
would solve. There are entries for both DB.3 and db.3 which is in 
./usr/share/man/man3 (which are the same file but are treated by UNIX 
as separate files) with different permissions. Thus the permission 
gets changed for DB.3 and then gets changed back for db.3. Not only 
that but (at least on my system) it does this dance a second time.
