bug#6762: 23.2; Eshell bug in detecting read-only file (patch included)

I have diff-default-read-only set to t and this prevents eshell from
writing to diff files i.e.

  ESHELL$ git diff x..y > file.diff

fails due to its use of buffer-read-only, which doesn't necessary
reflects the read-only state of a file.

The following patch tries to fix this.
