Hallo,

We have similar problems here -- default umask is set to 027 and therefore one needs to always remember changing it to 022 prior installing any ports or packages.
Been bitten many times because of this. :-\

There is an argument that if you set the umask then you are getting exactly what you ask for :)

Yes, you're right, and it works for us and I can imagine many situations people change default umask. But IMHO it doesn't make sense for ports/packages as installing them with non-default umask effectively renders them unusable. Therefore it seems to me that either ignoring umask or at least warning people umask is changed would be correct in this case.
