And enforcing the use of libpam-umask is actually the direction we're
taking..

First step probably : comment UMASK in login.defs in answer to
#314539.

Then probably discuss with the PAM maintainers and try having
libpam-umask used by default (with sane defaults of course). Tollef is
OK to improve it in areas it needs to be improved (user-level
configuration and so on...).)
