Oh good, it's not just me :)

How easily can you reproduce it? That majorly
effects how I would try to debug something like this...

No idea. Looking at the builds on Pipelines again, it seems that all the
builds since about 10am PDT have been failing, so perhaps they rolled
out something that changed how umask works? I don't have any idea
whether that's possible though.

If you're able to get an strace of a failed run then that would probably
tell us a *lot*.

I'll need help with that :) But if it's just commands in the
.azure-pipelines/posix-steps.yml file then sending a PR with them added
should do it.

Can you get a branch into your pipeline? Then you could just hack the tarfile test with something quick and dirty like:

   pid = os.getpid()
   system("strace -p %d 2>/path/to/strace.out &" % pid)
   time.sleep(2)   # get strace heaps of time to start

just before the tarfile open. A ghastly hack but it would get you debugging info. You could even decide to remove the strace.out file if the umask issue doesn't show, if it is erratic (can't see why it would be though).
