Hi,

/etc/skel/.profile contains the paragraph:

# the default umask is set in /etc/profile; for setting the umask
# for ssh logins, install and configure the libpam-umask package.
#umask 022

However, /etc/profile declares

# The default umask is now handled by pam_umask.
# See pam_umask(8) and /etc/login.defs.

Even if the pointer in .profile make sense (I've got no idea how old
it is), going through /etc/profile probably does not (but the comment
in /etc/profile is definitely useful, as it's a change from lenny).
