Thanks for testing.

There is just a point which worries me : I cannot understand
how your client patch deactivates the old code which was
applying the umask. I would prefer not to discover it the
hard way...

The

	sb->s_flags |= MS_POSIXACL;

line tells the VFS that it should leave umask applying to the
filesystem.  The flag is misnamed, it really should be "MS_NOMASK" or
something.

So there it was, relying on a safe condition...

Thanks so much.

Jean-Pierre
