Certainly cygwin 2.3.1 installed in, if memory serves, Dec of 2015 did not need the chmod to get putty to run. Thanks also to Warren Young for taking the time to reply. His comment that "cygwin1.dll is becoming more POSIX-compliant in its permission handling lately" seems to be right. If I install ncftp under cygwin and download putty.exe that way, it too gives the "Access is denied." error. So the changes are in cygwin, not wget.
