Exactly. The way the shell script does it is to _always_ honor user's umask and recreate the directory, so before that separate improvement, tweaking "mode" based on the returned value from an extra lstat() is an unneeded change of behaviour. Just passing 0777 and let mkdir() take the umask into account to come up with the final permission bits is more in line with the original scripted version, I would think. Thanks.
