I read too fast and didn't double check that.  The gdm defaults from
upstream source /etc/profile and/or ~/.profile but the default as
shipped with Fedora doesn't seem to do so.

You could add the umask call to the Xsession script in /etc/gdm (a
symlink to /etc/X11/xinit/Xsession) to apply it to all users or you
could add it to your personal startup script.  I forget what all
scripts are tried anymore, I've got my startup stuff in ~/.xsession.
