Summary: Warn on potentially useless umasks?
Initial Comment:
I noticed quite by accident today that distutils seems to take into
account the installer's umask setting when spambayes got
installed with these notices:
changing mode of /usr/local/bin/unheader.py to 711
changing mode of /usr/local/bin/hammie.py to 711
changing mode of /usr/local/bin/hammiecli.py to 711
changing mode of /usr/local/bin/hammiesrv.py to 711
...
The root user's umask was 077. Perhaps distutils should
warn the installer when scripts or modules would be installed
but not readable.

It appears this was fixed on CVS head back in November. Perhaps
I was using 2.2 when I posted this. Applied to 1.10.26.2 for the
2.2 maintenance branch.
