Unless I missed something, uuidd creates following files:
1) pidfile
2) socket for communication
3) clock state counter (via uuid__generate_time -> get_clock)
The creation of latter two is wrapped into
'su=umask(0) ... umask(su)'.
Only the pidfile creation would be affected by some weird
umask - I don't know if this is an issue.
