I've spent a lot of time finding why httpd + userdir didn't work on diablo (ERROR 403: Forbidden): the default permissions of my home directory /home/user were drwxr-x--- instead of drwxr-xr-x. I used httpd on chinook in the past and didn't have any problem. Have these default permissions changed? (I'm quite sure I've never changed them.)

Is there any reason why the default permissions are not drwxr-xr-x?

Who knows why the default is not world readable. Regardless, there shouldn't be any problem with you manually changing permissions on the directory.
Code:
chmod o+rx /home/user
         OR
chmod 755 /home/user
You might have to do the same thing with the /home/user/public_html directory.
