Subject: Question about umask and CYGWIN=ntsec

I'm using Cygwin 1.3.12-4 with CYGWIN=ntsec on an NTFS filesystem, and I
have my umask set to 177, but when I create a new file with "touch foo",
the permissions on the file are "rwxr-xr-x".

Is there any way to use "ntsec" and not have all newly created files
appear with execute permissions?
