 I encountered the following problem with 'make install' with chicken
 4.8.0:

 My umask is 027, which means that by default, new files that I create have
 no permission bits set for 'other'.

 I installed chicken like this:

     $ sudo make PLATFORM=linux install

 I found that the installed files had used my umask instead of a sane
 default.  The directories /usr/local/include/chicken and
 /usr/local/lib/chicken/ (and maybe others?) had no permission bits set for
 other.
