<function>umask</function> sets PHP's umask to
<parameter>mask</parameter> & 0777 and returns the old
umask. When PHP is being used as a server module, the umask
is restored when each request is finished.

Avoid using this function in multithreaded webservers. It is better to
change the file permissions with <function>chmod</function> after
creating the file. Using <function>umask</function> can lead to
unexpected behavior of concurrently running scripts and the webserver
itself because they all use the same umask.
