ownership of the new file created in s3fs directory is user root and group root

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When I create a file in a directory under s3fs mounted file system, it is owned 
by user root and group root.  Is this correct behavior?  shouldn't it be owned 
by the user/group who is creating the file?  Or is this an indication of 
underlying problem?  Or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you in advance.

This is a problem. If you are installing 1.40 then you should get 1.40 on s3fs 
--version.  I suspect that you have multiple versions installed and your PATH 
is pointing to the older one.

Existing issues address the ownership issue. Issue #20, issue #40 and/or issue 
#93 (or some combination of them) should cover this ownership issue.
