now attempt to use the files I just patched:
$ mvn clean install

[ERROR] error: error reading xxx\yyy\zzz\Test.java;

I was able to reproduce this on another computer, as well.
Windows 7, 64 bit, blah blah blah.
When I right click on the files and go to properties -> security,
somehow all users except administrators have no rights to the modified
files.
This could be related to the problem discussed starting at
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-11/msg00922.html
The issue there was ACLs on the temporary directory used by patch. The
resolution of that was to set TMP and TEMP to "/tmp" in Cygwin's default
startup files (see /etc/defaults/profile). But you appear to be running
patch outside of a Cygwin shell, so you're not benefiting from that fix.
(I'm basing this guess on the fact that you start patch by giving its
Windows path.)
