/dev/shm is a tmpfs, and tmpfs in the kernel has a default mode of
01777.  I don't see how this could be happening without a) an /etc/fstab
entry overriding the /lib/init/fstab entry, or b) a rogue local script
running at start-up that's changing the mode.

I certainly don't see any bugs in mountall here, and can't reproduce
this - so if someone is still seeing this in 12.04, I'm afraid we're
going to need more information to figure it out.

** Changed in: mountall (Ubuntu)
