That's defined in /etc/permissions, see the info in that file.
Normally permissions are only set by SuSEconfig (which also can be called from
yast or yast2) and AFAIK not by any cronjob except rotate_logs which set
permissions according to the ones defined in /etc/logfiles
So maybe they change sometimes after you use yast(2) or after you use
SuSEconfig.

No, why should a full queue have anything to do with permissions?
