Let me get this straight: removing Windows permissions that conflict with POSIX 
permissions is “overengineered,” so your solution is to ignore all permissions? 
 I think I’ll stick with my solution.

I couldn’t use noacl anyway, because I use db_home: windows in my nsswitch.conf 
file, which means my $HOME is outside Cygwin’s mount table.  I’d have to 
individually map each %USERPROFILE% subdir I wanted into /home/warren in order 
to use noacl.
