umask issues

There are a couple of open issues regarding the umask:
https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/7430
https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/pull/11403

Thoughts on these?

Homebrew's current default mode is "installed by a single user who
basically controls the laptop".

Is there any action-item from these two issues, or can we resolve them?

We could default to running everything as 0002 which would mean people 
could access Homebrew as long as they were in the staff group (or admin or
whatever).
