Of course, I mean ~egcs-1.0.2/lib/gcc-lib/...

Additionally I noted their are some files with permission 600 instead of
644 in this directory tree. 

Directory permission created by "make install" (egcs-1.0.*)

[Michael Roth]

Hi,

egcs-1.0.* installs following directories with mode 700 even if I set the
umask to 022 before typing "make install":

~egcs-1.0.2/gcc-lib/mips-sgi-irix5.3/egcs-2.90.27/include
~egcs-1.0.2/gcc-lib/mips-sgi-irix5.3/egcs-2.90.27/include/sys
~egcs-1.0.2/gcc-lib/mips-sgi-irix5.3/egcs-2.90.27/include/net
~egcs-1.0.2/gcc-lib/mips-sgi-irix5.3/egcs-2.90.27/include/sys/sys
~egcs-1.0.2/gcc-lib/mips-sgi-irix5.3/egcs-2.90.27/include/objc

It doesn't matter which plattform used (I found this on linux and
solaris, too). 

I think this is a bug, isn't it? I changed the permissions to 755 of these
directories.

The directories are copied with tar, thus they inherit all permissions
from the build directory.

Ah, easy to forget about the files copied with tar/cpio.

One could certainly argue that that the "p" in TAROUTOPTS is
wrong.

What about two lines like these in Makefiles for targets which use  tar/cpio
to install some stuff:

	find _SOME_PATH_ -type d -exec chmod a+rx \{\} \;
 and	find _SOME_PATH_ -type f -exec chmod a+r \{\} \;

All remaining targets in Makefiles are using 'chmod' to ensure correct 
permissions on installed directories and files.
Targets using tar/cpio should ensure correct permissions too, shouldn't they?

That does not change anything, since removing it only means that tar uses
the user's umask during extraction.
