Depends on your POV.  When using a DOS path, you're getting default
Windows permissions, as documented.  No special POSIX handling for
incoming DOS paths.

No, it hasn't.  It has POSIX-compliant permissions.  "foo" is a relative
path, the CWD is always treated as POSIX path.  The resulting absolute
path is POSIX, so POSIX permission handling is utilized.

You have to forgive Explorer that it doesn't handle POSIX permissions
more correctly.  The permission settings are wrongly evaluated as
permissions of a "shared" folder, since Vista AFAIR.

his.

Weird comparison.  CMD and PowerShell are not POSIX environments.
