Hi Daniel,

Sure. Here's the (hopefully) final patch. Sorry about the slopiness
earlier -- I was in a hurry to get the concept right.

diff -x-w version (for review):

[[[
Determine default perms in an elegant thread-safe way, not racily

* subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c

  (): Add two static volatile global variables to be used for storing
  permissions: default_perms and perms_init_state.

  (get_default_file_perms): Remove all functional code into
  get_tmpfile_perms, and use apr_atomic__init_once so that code is
  only executed once.

  (get_tmpfile_perms): New function to determine default file
  permissions by creating a temporary file and extracting permissions
  from it. Default permissions are not determined racily anymore,
  since this function is an apr_atomic__init_once callback.

  (merge_default_file_perms): Remove unnecessary local default_perms
  variable; use the global one instead.
