The umask argument to mkdir is required by older versions of Perl. I think
it became optional in 5.6. I'm not sure if automake has a minimum Perl
version it aims to support (it doesn't seem to declare on in the script
itself in the latest version I have installed), but I notice NEWS says a
Perl-5.6-ism was fixed in 1.8.3.
Anyway, omitting the argument is documented as being the same as passing
0777 for it, so it's probably better to just specify it...
Cheers,
