| * pam_umask: New module for setting umask from GECOS field,
| /etc/login.defs or /etc/default/login

It would be nice if you actually implemented the same set of semantics
as which are in the pam-umask module by me and has been around for the
better part of a year.

Also note that /etc/login.defs is a file provided by shadow and the
umask setting is going to go away from there as soon as there is
satisfactory support in pam itself.
