Running tests outside ltp-pan should indeed possible but I'm not sure
that we want to change the umask in the test library. Most of the
testcases will run with the more restrictive umask just fine and I would
rather test the system in the default configuration. So changing it in
the test setup in this case sounds reasonable to me.
