I committed a patch with the umask option a few days ago.  I thought it
only affected zdaemon and the tests all looked clean afterwards.  I'm
not sure how zopectl.py ends up being affected or why there aren't any
tests of it.  The various scripts to start and stop programs are usually
hard to test, but they're usually the source of a lot of bugs, too.
