(It should be `umask` here exactly as you did, ok, good.)

 Use permissions reported by umask(2). The default, when `--shared` is not
 specified.

 _<perm>_ is a 3-digit octal number prefixed with `0` and each file
 will have mode _<perm>_. _<perm>_ will override users'`umask(2)`

It's a bit of a mix whether umask(2) should be `umask(2)` with backticks
or just umask(2) without. That's pretty much the only thing I noticed,
everything else looks really nice and consistent. I guess it's not a
literal, since we don't expect to user to actually type the 8 characters
"umask(2)"? If you do decide to drop the backticks, notice that there's
one instance (seen above) of "users'`umask(2)`" with a missing space,
so you might want to fix that up at the same time.

Ah. Good point! As we are referring to the manpage of a function, this *is* 
indeed a case of verbatim text so, it must be backquoted. 

So, I'll add it the guidelines and reroll with changes in the man pages.

Thanks
