The problem I have with this, is the umask setting is external to the
environment which you're invoking "make tests" from.  As such, if you know
thwe umask is the cause of this, simply do:

    (umask 022; make tests)

But I'm not keen on setting an explicit umask, regardless of how innocent a
change this could be.

Kindly,
Thomas
