11g grid infrastructure pre requisite errors

Question

Hi All,
I am installing 11g grid infrastructure in a Solaris 10 SPARC 64 Bit
During the pre requisite check, the installer gave failure for umask
Error : PRVF-7612: User file creation mask check cannot be performed for user"oracle" on node
We have the umask set as 022 for oracle/
Please advice.
Thanks & Regards,
Rakesh

Has anybody found a solution for this ubiquituous 022 umask error?
Our DBA is going nuts thinking we have her oracle user environment hosed, but have ensured her 10 ways to Sunday that 'umask' returns 022.
I thought maybe the OUI was expecting a literal 0022, so I have modified the umask command to actually run a script which calls the real umask binary and prefixes a '0' to the output if no args are passed.
so ... umask would actually return "printf '0%s\n' umask.bin"
Still getting the error:
