Subject: Fix directory creation mode. Unless umask is set to 0 the default umask of the system... 
X-Git-Tag: v0.6~12
X-Git-Url: http://git.lttng.org/?p=ust.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=18baca846d9957651fd0f10b6e5c9cdaa42ce748

Fix directory creation mode. Unless umask is set to 0 the default umask of the system, commonly 022, will be used and thus it becomes impossible to get the 777 mode.
