I'm very curious what the significance of the archive bit is expected  
to be.

I've chased this issue down further and the plot thickens a bit.

My test program may or may not work as expected depending the  
directory in which it's run.  Further digging shows that if cygwin  
creates the directory, my test works.  If cmd.exe or some other  
program create the directory, then the test fails.

I've been fooling around with cygwin getfacl/setfacl since that's  
where the difference appears to be...

It's looking definitely like this is not really a mingw problem at all.

Sorry for the interruption and thanks for the pointers,
