Could you explain why you need this? Is it to allow 0775 group write access? Allowing a way to override the default umask would remove one of the Debian patches to Perl that's been in there for ages. They strip the hard coded 0755 out of ExtUtils::Install and presumably use the umask. http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/perl/perl_5.10.0-19.diff.gz -- 24.
