OpenSSL does create keys in more components than just gen(r|d)sa. In
none of these functions any file permission mask is used.
All of the components in openssl/apps are using the file-BIO which
behaves like <stdio> and does not have idea about file permissions.
People using OpenSSL to generate their keys should rather use safe umask
settings.
