current (process) uid/gid instead of OWNER. This is not expected to be
a problem in practice.
The permission bits and owner of DIRECTORY are set to BITS and OWNER.
Anything above DIRECTORY that already exists keeps
its old owner and bits. For components that do not exist yet, the owner
and bits are set according to the default behaviour of 'mkdir'."
