Thanks for reporting that bug. It was indeed an unintended consequence of my 
earlier change. I installed the attached patch, which should fix it.

I have observed that byte-compiled files have permissions 0600,
regardless of the umask (mine is 022).  This is bad, especially for
system-wide installations.

Looking at the lisp/ directory, this has started between August 2 and
August 8 this year.

Commit 785a4a1d52fd ("Fix a couple of make-temp-file races") is likely
the culprit, but I haven't verified that.
