Applied to next for testing:

I've fixed permission mask code in patch 2 and 3. Please confirm that
it works OK in your environment.

I've also removed permission mask setting for directories and files as
I am not certain that it belongs there - it wasn't there before and
user can always change permissions with install command. Issue with
default permissions being 775 is system default related and occurs
only with directories that are automatically created - directories
created with install command get permission 755 which is acceptable
for deb packages.
I believe that this inconsistency should be fixed elsewhere by adding
possibility to set global default directory permissions.

> Is it on time for 3.4 freeze?

Feature freeze was announced for Oct, 1 so it should make it in 3.4
