Description:
------------
Hello!

I am using PHP compiled as DSO.

Echoing the umask() I get 79 (117 octal).

My system sets the 0022 mask for the apache environment.

How can this default mask be set globaly for the server environment (php.ini?) ?

Maybe related to #36630??? (even though bug is marked as closed)

Reproduce code:
---------------
echo umask();

Expected result:
----------------
18 
which will be 22 octal because the environment in which apache runs has 0022 mask

AND

clear explanations in documentation on how php gets it's default mask settings



Actual result:
--------------
the output of echo command:

79

The umask that is set for apache environment is 022.
I would expect that environmental settings for apache to be used by php processes so the default umask for a php process to be 18 (22 octal)

I would expect that this default umask not to be influenced by umask alteration by other php processes.

Thanks

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.2-win32-latest.zip

We still know nothing about your environment and the reasons that make you think the umask has been changed by other PHP process.
