Thank you for reporting this bug to Xubuntu. Xubuntu 9.04(Jaunty) reached EOL
on 2010-10-23.
Please see this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
This bug was resolved in later versions of Xubuntu, however, it will not
be fixed in Xubuntu 9.04.
i am running up to date jaunty (thunar 1.0.0-1ubuntu3)
and doing the following:
1) log in
2) right click - open terminal here
3) execute umask -- 022
4) close terminal
5) right click - create folder - ok
6) right click - open terminal here
7) execute umask -- 000
tried many times. reproducible.
Michael: That test is invalid, and shows nothing. You've misunderstood
how the umask works.
In a UNIX system, things like environment variables, ulimit settings and
the umask are inherited from the parent process during process creation.
Your test has a process tree like this:
Thunar
I've no time to check in detail now, but the patch shipped in our jaunty
package is probably incomplete, and should be replaced by the one
shipped in karmic

** Also affects: thunar (Ubuntu Jaunty)
Craig, you are right that my problem most certainly is not a duplicate
of the bug discussed here, but a separate problem.
Even though it might be totally unrelated to your problem, I do not
think my test is invalid in general, because it results in world-
writable files that most certainly are
Michael:
Yep, that's ugly. It actually is properly associated with this bug, too,
as the patch Debian and Ubuntu have for Thunar is completely borked.
The umask patch:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/jaunty/thunar/jaunty/revision/58
is at fault for this. It calls:
... however, Jaunty isn't a LTS release and has been superceded by
Karmic, so I don't know if anyone with the power to do so will/can
actually merge the patch that corrects this:

Someone who knows Thunar well should check this and make sure these code
paths aren't also used for anything that might care about group/world
write if the user's umask permits it. To me it looks pretty safe,
though.
** Attachment added: Don't override user's umask for normal file/directory
