Thanks all for the reactions. I reply only to this mail, but that doesn't
mean the others weren't gratefully received.

Which is also /private/etc . Besides, it turned out to be a Samba
configuration (solved) and an ftpd configuration (not yet solved) problem.

umask turned out not to be enough, since I upload through Samba and FTP.
Interesting side note: on my Mac 'man umask' gives the manpage for tcsh,
which is not at all what I'd expected.
Thanks all, problem solved.
