Just a wild shot in the dark, but according to this (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky_bit#Examples), the octal code is 1000
for the sticky bit in unix.

In Ruby's documentation (http://ruby-doc.org/core/classes/File.html#M000037)
File#chmod can set the octal bits for a file, which I would guess would be
1xxx, where xxx is what you normally set your permissions to (644 usually).
