Thanks for the review.  Like this?

  #!/bin/bash
  # Fix a problem introduced by older versions of setup.exe
  # Directories with 1777 permissions were erroneously created
  # with 777 inheritable default permissions.  This is a security
  # problem for non-Cygwin apps using these folders.  This is
  # especially tragic in case of /tmp.

  GUARDFILE="/etc/.1777fix"
  DIRLIST="/home /tmp /usr/tmp /var/log /var/run"

  if [ ! -f "${GUARDFILE}" ]
  then
    cnt=0
    success=0
    for file in ${DIRLIST}
    do
      # We test if the default group or other permissions are rwx.
      # If so, it's dangerous and highly likely that these are still
      # the permissions set by setup.exe
      case $(getfacl "${file}") in
      *default:group::rwx* | *default:other:rwx* )
	cnt=$(($cnt + 1))
	setfacl -m d:g::r-x,d:o:r-x "${file}" 2>/dev/null \
	&& success=$(($success + 1))
	;;
      esac
    done
    # If no file needed treatment, or if all setfacl calls succeeded,
    # create the guard file.
    [ $cnt -eq  $success ] && touch "${GUARDFILE}"
  fi
