I proposed this question to my favourite WRS support engineer and the
official answer is:

[ If you supply a "mode" in the open() call, it will be the file mode -
[ default permissions otherwise.
[ 
[ nfsLib.c : 
[ 
[     createArgs.where.name = fileName;
[ 
[     pSattr = &createArgs.attributes;
[ 
[     if (mode == 0)
[         /* create a file with default permissions */
[         pSattr->mode = NFS_FSTAT_REG | DEFAULT_FILE_PERM;
[     else
[         pSattr->mode = mode;
