Version: 3.0-4
The CERN httpd does umask(0) and all files it creates (pid, logs) are
mode 666. Not good. To fix: find umask(0) in HTDaemon.c and remove it.
I have sent a report about this to httpd@w3.org long time ago and even
received a reply that this is in fact a bug, but 3.0 is probably still
the latest version...
