The scripts are installed using INSTALL_SCRIPT, which according to my
understanding should install as mode 755.

After running configure, my top-level Makeconf contains

INSTALL = /usr/bin/install -c
INSTALL_DATA = ${INSTALL} -m 644
INSTALL_PROGRAM = ${INSTALL}
INSTALL_SCRIPT = ${INSTALL}
INSTALL_DIR = ${INSTALL} -d

What does yours look like?
