Hmm, checked, but umask of root is set to 022. Indeed I played with umask, but only for the normal user. Otherwise, I set umask in /etc/login.defs to 077, but IMO this would result in 700 to files and not in 750 (as I saw). Thanks for the hint anyway, I check my system for any related configurations.
