The documentation says:

val mkdir : string -> file_perm -> unit
Create a directory with the given permissions.

It should mention something about the permission mask being applied when there is one.

Since the Unix module is a thin layer on top of Unix system calls, we probably don't want to duplicate the Unix documentation. We should maybe add a general remark at the top of the Unix module to tell the users to see the man pages for more details.
