Can you change DARWINTRACE_DEBUG to 1 in your base's
src/darwintracelib1.0/darwintrace.h, run make clean, make, sudo make
install in this directory, try again and attach the output?

What's the value of curdir() here?

Darwintrace does not modify the behavior of chmod, so I doubt that
causes the problem. It does hook into stat, mkdir, rmdir and unlink,
though.
