Follow-up Comment #1:
Sorry, but POSIX requires that "mkdir -p FOO/BAR" must create FOO as if by
the following command:
mkdir -m $(umask -S),u+wx FOO
See:
http://www.opengroup.org/susv3/utilities/mkdir.html
It might make sense to add the behavior you desire, as a new option to mkdir,
but I'd have some qualms about changing the existing, standard behavior, as
people may be relying on it.
