Summary: gdk: umask(0000); kind of bad for security

Initial Comment:
common/src/gdk/gdk_utils.mx:1639

    umask(0000);

This effectively means that the umask from the parent (caller) is ignored, 
which is IMHO not desirable.

I don't see why the umask has to be tampered with to create the gdk lock.
