Owen,

Thanks for explaining the situation with umask.  I'd noticed the
discrepancy between login/non-login shells and wondered what was
going on.

Having used Red Hat OSes for many years it just seems *natural* that
files should be '-rw-rw-r--' but I'm sure I'd get used to '-rw-r--r--'
eventually.  After all, that's how it was before.

If we do stick with 0002 it would be *tidier* if default directories
had the same permissions as user-created directories.  Currently:

   $ ls -l 
   total 68
   drwxrwxr-x.  2 rmy rmy  4096 May 15 10:10 bin
   drwxr-xr-x.  2 rmy rmy  4096 May 15 09:47 Desktop
   ...
