 I see that jkim changed the directory creation code to use _DEF_DIRMODE =
 (which is defined in pw.h as S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG | S_IRWXO) in rev 219408.
 
 However, I would expect mkdir() to follow the umask value, so I would =
 not expect your suggested patch to result in any functional difference. =
 I would expect that we should instead chmod() after mkdir() to apply a =
 useful access mode to the directory after creation, or temporarily =
 change the umask before mkdir().
