  //
  // /* starting umask: default_value
  // auto a = std::make_unique<ScopedUmask>(first_value);
  // ... code here ...
  // a.reset(ScopedUmask(new_value));
  //
  // Here, the order of destruction of the old object and the construction of
  // the new object is inverted. The recommended usage would be:
  //
  // {
  //    ScopedUmask a(old_value);
  //    ... code here ...

  //
  // {
