I don't like the idea to change these permissions. This is actually unlikely to help. Especially what's the reasoning to change group membership to SYSTEM?

What irritates me is the "seen on UNIX" and "seen inside ssh session". What does that mean? From the cygcheck output I would think the home dir is on the local NTFS drive C:. So how can you see anything from UNIX? You know that the permission translation between UNIX and NT via Samba doesn't work flawlessly, don't you? Could you please enlighten us what the above wording is trying to say? And especially interesting are the permissions on these files seen in a *local* NT session on that very machine you're trying to connect via ssh.
