I tried to use -u option of ftpd without any success for 2 hours!
Then I thought lets see whats going on inside the sources...
Voila, the -u option is overridden by login.conf

        /* May be overridden by login.conf */         
        (void) umask(defumask); 

Cant anybody put this into the man page of ftpd so that people will know
why their -u option doesnt work? :) I was really mad at ftpd
