I have a recent snapshot (07/08) so I took a look at this and indeed the
execute bit does not show up for any of the .dll files in usr/bin/. In my
case I explicitly set nontsec in the CYGWIN variable and some applications
are working while others are not. I've tried using chmod +x on those dlls
without affect. The bits still remain rw-r--r--... this is on a FAT
partition under NT 4.0 with binary mounts. Is chmod supposed to do anything
in this case?
