Thanks the thread is on:

I am tinking of reassigning this to "general". This was never a xfree86-common bug. 
Maybe an xdm/gdm/kdm one. But now that libpam-umask is available the wishlist is fixed.


In my opinion this should be added by default to the login pam rules in /etc/pam.d (though commented).

Well thanks again for supporting this missing feature until it was fixed for goods.
