dlight has ppriv executable that needs to have +x permissions. nativeexecution's project properties has nbm.executable.files=bin/nativeexecution/** So, if a standard installed-based distribution is used everything is OK. But in case when zip distribution is used, ppriv has no +x...
The problem is that nbbuild/build.xml sets regexp that is used for giving executable permissions that doesn't matches required files.

The way to verify the fix is to wait for a nightly nb build, download zip distribution and check that permissions are set.
Still no nightly build... Though, the fix is very safe (Vladimir, please review). I think that we can promote it to patch1... (I have tested it locally)
verified, please push to release68_fixes.
thanks, Dmitry!
The fix has been ported into the release68_fixes repository. http://hg.netbeans.org/release68_fixes/rev/afa57109cf36
verified in patch1 candidate zip distribution
