    Hey there!

    I have included a patch to adduser that allows a user to change the
    permissions with which adduser sets a new home directory. I made this
    change because I ALWAYS forget to set up a default permission since most
    variants of Unix already set it to 0751 for me.

    I also included a diff of the man page for adduser that gives some
    information about the change.

    I tried testing this in as many possible ways as I could. I'd like to
    think I did a good job, but only time can tell.

    Should I send this patch somewhere else or not?
