Running PERL 5.000 on Solaris 2.4. The mkdir command is not setting the
directory permissions to 0777 as I've specified in the command. I can
iumediately follow the mkdir command by a chmod to 0777 and that works fine.
If you need more information let me know.

What is your 'umask' ? mkdir honours it and chmod does not, same
as under-lying system calls.
