 Consider the following scenario:
 {{{
 $ cd /tmp
 $ mkdir U
 $ chmod 770 U
 $ cd U
 $ touch test.py
 $ umask 022
 $ sage -t test.py #this fails as expected
 $ umask 002
 $ sage -t test.py #this fails on bsd but succeeds on boxen
 }}}
 Setting umask is supposed to be a work-around for allowing testing in
 group-writeable directories, but this doesn't work on OSX (or at least it
 doesn't on bsd.math.washington.edu). See also
