I've noticed that afpd turns off the Unix executable bits when
overwriting, for example, a perl script. This is an annoyance,
because then you have to go to a shell to put the bits back.

The man pages and FAQs don't say anything about this. Is preserving
the bits on an existing file just not an option?
