So you're saying PHP should pass the mode directly to the operating system, without doing
anything regarding the umask?

NO jesus

"The mode is also modified by the current umask, which you can change using umask()"
tlaking about anything else then DEFAULTS makes no sense

the whole problem likely is that it *has any default* instead just let the OS act on it's
defaults based on the umask and someone tried to coide fuzzy logik around that with the outcome we
now have

if a function whcih get 0770 as chmod-param reulsts in anything else then 0770 this is a bug - full
stop

Indeed, I have to say to myself RTFM about the mode argument:

https://secure.php.net/manual/en/function.mkdir.php

This can be closed.

wrong behavior doesn't get better by nosense in docs
when i say 0770 i mean 0770, full stop

if i need to fire up a chmod after mkdir to have a conrtolled behavior please remove that idiotic
parameter entirely so people are awarw - hopefully next you don't tell me chmod() has also
ramndom behavior

frankly the whole point for the chmod param is that in case of umasks you you can make sure that
your script set what you say nd not relies on arbitary local defaults

> the umask is for control default permission
No, it applies to default and explicit values. Read the docs.
