I wouldn't expect it to be the case in a CI environment but I believe a umask can be overridden if the filesystem is mounted and configured with acls set?  (oh, hah, Ivan just said the same thing)

Yep, it appears this is the case. The Pipelines team got back to me and it seems to be a known issue - the workaround they gave me was to run "sudo setfacl -Rb /home/vsts" at the start, so I've merged that in for now (to master and 3.7).

Cheers, Steve
