Umask did the trick. Kde seems to be following /etc/profile, so i edited 
it. Konsole and yakuake needed a 'umask 02' added to ~/.bashrc (there 
was none) to behave well. Neither one was reading ~/.bash_profile, by 
the way. It remembers me when I was trying to add ~/bin to my path. 
There was

if [ -d ~/bin ] ; then
   PATH=~/bin:"${PATH}"
fi

but not worked.
Anyway, the issue is solved. Thanks all!
