As for the original bug, that is not a bug, that's Unix.

For example, within `csharp`:

    using (var o = new
UnixFileInfo("foo.txt").Create(FileAccessPermissions.AllPermissions)) {
    }

The `ls -l` output for foo.txt:

    $ ls -l foo.txt
    -rwxr-xr-x  1 jon  staff  0 Mar  7 11:45 foo.txt

I believe your "bug" is that 755 (the above) is not 777. HOWEVER:

    $ umask
    0022

If we set umask to 0:

    $ umask 0
    $  csharp -r:Mono.Posix.dll <<EOF
    using Mono.Unix;
    using (var o = new
UnixFileInfo("foo.txt").Create(FileAccessPermissions.AllPermissions)) {
    }
    EOF
    $ ls -l foo.txt 
    -rwxrwxrwx  1 jon  staff  0 Mar  7 11:57 foo.txt
