I deploy vms via  script from that template and when they are brought online the Cygwin prompt is now '#' instead of a '$' and I cannot start sshd.   Both Cygwin sshd service are configured with the cyg_server account to start them.  And as far as I can tell the only difference is one machine was deployed via script from the working template and I don't know why the permissions are changing for Cygwin when deploying these servers.   For all intensive purposed the permissions are identical.

the "+", at the end of permissions flags, means that there
are additional permissions due to ACL

Try forcing
chmod 755 /var/empty
