[2016-09-01 19:28] [#suckless] <iamb> Raiz: 0666 is correct for touch,
it is bitwise-anded with umask. see open(2), or test with those other
utilities, or look at their code
[2016-09-01 19:30] [#suckless] <Raiz> looks like I'm the one introducing
bugs rather than fixing them
sorry for inconvenience.

from a security prespective, touch should not allow
everyone to have write permissions to the file, if
someones needs such a permission, chmod(1) can be
used later.
I have tried touch(1) from coreutils and OpenBSD,
both set the default permissions to 644.
