Public bug reported:
I have set UMASK 077 in /etc/login.defs and there is no override in
~/.profile, ~/.bashrc or the corresponding system-wide files.
The umask command still prints 0022 in gnome terminal, but prints 0007
when I log into tty1. Newly created files get the same permissions as
when umask is set to 0022 within the Unity session.
Even a full system reboot does not change this behaviour.
