YAW.
Here is another clarification

1.3.21 will fix some of those but in lots of cases stat will still show
that files installed by setup are not accessible.
Fixing the bulk of those awaits the soon/future/eventual setup.exe with
ntsec patch.
Even then I fear there will be remaining cases (wait and see).
So a FAQ entry would not hurt.
I was also thinking that cygcheck could "getfacl /bin".
