Y'all catch dis heeyah?  Dan Coutu been jivin' 'bout like:

In which operation?  It's so "standard" it has three different ways of
doing it.

EXPORT = 0666
OPEN = 0600
[some operation I can't remember] = 0644

If you really need wide open perms, and are cognizant of the security
implications, do an EXPORT first, then CLOSE EXPORTNAME (you -MUST- use
EXPORTNAME, as close by itself doesn't work on exports), then use OPEN if
that's what you're using.  The O_CREAT will never be triggered because it
exists already, so the mode fP has internally hardwired is never used.

I wish I could remember which uses 0644.  Damn.
