How long did you know that this is wrong in Cygwin? I was really
surprised to read that. Maybe you told me already and I ignored it.
One of the Cygwin patches in 2001 was to change the alloc_sd function so
that unrelated ACEs are not touched when changing the ACEs reflecting
the standard file permission bits. It never occured to any of us that
this might be wrong. Oh well. I'll look into changing that for 1.7.0.
