--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
 When mythmusic creates the sub-directories of the path for a new music
 file then umask is set to 022 - clearing the 'group write' and 'other
 write' bits.  This can create problems when the base directory is on a
 mounted share and the creator is not the owner of the share but has write
 permission by means of group membership; for instance when the directory
 is shared over NFS or Samba and the permissions are drwsrwsr-t, i.e. a
 'drop box'.  In this case when the file is created the missing group write
 permission on the containing directory causes the open to fail.

 The attached patch changes umask to 002, permitting 'group write' in the
 created directories.
