Already did that. Did the whole uploads/2009/06/ thang too. No joy.
Even tried switching the owner and group to www-data (which is the owner and group of the WP created .htaccess file). No joy.

I had switch the spaces to underscores in the directory holding WP and thought I had made all the appropriate changes to WP. But, alas, there was one more thing. Settings -> Miscellaneous -> Store Uploads in this folder. So it was trying to create a new directory in my web root–which is not writable by anyone but me.
All is well now. Thank you for your help.
