I wasted a few hours on this function until I realized that at least on some systems, you'll
get unpredictable results if you try using "abbreviated" mode values with the mkdir()
function.
For example, you should always use the form mkdir($dir, 0777) and NOT mkdir($dir, 777), as you can
use in chmod. Maybe this is obvious to some, but if you're having troubles getting the right
permissions for a directory, you may want to check this first.
