Summary:  file mode should be 2775 in any cases

Original Submission:  When people upload files to their download area, in some 
case, the mode of it is not 2775 as it should be (option -p - that could be 
usefull to conserve mtime, ctime- cause this).

This results in many kind of problems. And since only admins have a shell 
account, only admins can fix this.

Instead of permitting to users to set mode by themselves (Should we allow 
people to create directories with restricted access? It doesnt seem compatible 
with our policy.), we should do something that would automatically chmod the 
files in a proper way.

The easiest way to do this should be to do a chmod 2775 /upload/* -R on a 
cronjob, but I'm sure it exists ways to do this automatically with ssh that 
avoid to use so much ressources to do a so minor task.
