755 should be enough…

You're welcome, any feedback at this stage is really appreciated...

Well even if SFCGAL is for now use in conjunction with PostGIS,
we could imagine to use it without PostGIS…
(as others softwares than PostGIS use GEOS too)


So this documentation installation step is more relevant in PostGIS doc…
And your right i was supposed to write SFCGAL Install Part in 8.10,
and still not done it... 
http://postgis.net/docs/manual-dev/reference.html#reference_sfcgal

I will so do it soon !


Right now the more recent documentation related to installation/usage
is the FOSS4G Workshop about PostGIS 3D:
https://github.com/Oslandia/Workshops/tree/master/FOSS4G_2013_PostGIS_3D


HTH,
