[issue19921] Path.mkdir(0, True) always fails

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

The mkdir utility creates parent directories with mode 0o777 & ~umask.

$ mkdir -p -m 0 t1/t2/t3
$ ls -l -d t1 t1/t2 t1/t2/t3
drwxrwxr-x 3 serhiy serhiy 4096 Dec  7 22:30 t1/
drwxrwxr-x 3 serhiy serhiy 4096 Dec  7 22:30 t1/t2/
d--------- 2 serhiy serhiy 4096 Dec  7 22:30 t1/t2/t3/

So perhaps we should just use 0o777 mode for parent directories.
