Subject: Inconsistent permissions
ExtUtils::Install handles file and directory permissions differently. Any files it creates have their permissions explicitly set, but directories get whatever permissions the umask allows. This is inconsistent; permissions for files and directories should either both ignore the inherited umask or both obey it.
