Thanks a lot Andrew, that's exactly what I needed. 

The changes I am contemplating will fix the problem 
in your situation.

FYI, it looks like you must be in the Administrators group 
to run chmod -R and fix the permission display, but you already
have at least Windows RX permissions on the files (although 
Cygwin doesn't know it).
