How about making it a libdiskfs option (assuming it is diskfs making this decision)? Linux has this option for mount: grpid or bsdgroups / nogrpid or sysvgroups These options define what group id a newly created file gets. When grpid is set, it takes the group id of the directory in which it is created; otherwise (the default) it takes the fsgid of the current process, unless the directory has the setgid bit set, in which case it takes the gid from the parent directory, and also gets the setgid bit set if it is a directory itself. I don't mind having the BSD behaviour as the default. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
