Yes, I've tried a few different approaches, without luck thus far.  However, since 
when we started that thread, I already had the group part looking right, and it was only the 
user that was wrong, I figured I should keep trying harder before seeking more help
with the group.

Thank you for fixing this bug.

In truth - I don't really care much which user/group cygwin reports for my samba
shares - the real issue I've been annoyed by for months (since installing 1.7.34 
the day after it was released, totally ignorant of the major changes it contained...)
was this one with some git shares mounted on samba.  However, since it looked like a 
permissions problem and no one else seemed troubled by it, I figured it best to get my 
house in order with the new permissions setup before seeking help with this issue.  
Having at least got the user looking right (which I assumed git would be using), 
it was time to dig into git.

That's unfortunate - though now at least (since my "others" has execute permissions),
git is working again for me.  I'll keep digging at my "group" issue as a 
back project.

Thanks heaps for your speedy fix - have a great and well-earned break!

John
