Strange default umask value

umask: 0x1FF, // S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG | S_IRWXO

The default umask (0777) is unusual and causes files to be created as unreadable by anyone. A more typical umask would by 022

Sure we can change that to 022. Why do you care? I guess for nodefs where maybe permissions are real?

[drpowell]

Exactly, with nodefs files are created with no permission bits - and cannot be chmoded without changing umask first

Feel free to upload a patch + test. Otherwise, I've marked this as "good first bug" and "help wanted" since it seems pretty straight forward.
