Summary0009620: install(target ...) fails to set intermediate directory permissions correctly
DescriptionThe install command for a target (executable, libary, module) allows to specifiy the permisions with which the target is to be installed. What install lacks is a way to specify the permissions for the path of directories that is created, e.g. when installing to an empty directory /opt/test and a Unix umask of 077, the files /opt/test/bin/myExecutable and /opt/test/lib/libmyLib.so have the permissions specified by the permissions statement, in my case 755. The newly created directories /opt/test/bin and /opt/test/lib have permissions 700. The same holds even for the install(directory ...) scenario: The specified directory/ies are created with the correct permissions, the intermediate directories that needed creating are created with 700 again.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional Informationcmake 2.6.2
Linux (openSUSE 11.1)

This is a problem for me, too. If I knew where to look, I might try my hand at a patch. If it's in CMake scripting, it shouldn't be too hard. If it's in the C/C++, then I'll need instructions on finding and building the source.
