I was able to use these command to produce sane results
$ cd /cygdrive/c
$ touch bad.txt
$ setfacl -k .
$ touch good.txt
$ ls -l *.txt
-rw-rwxr--+ 1 John None 0 Apr 8 02:16 bad.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 John None 0 Apr 8 02:16 good.txt
I feel that the default permissions are wrong here. On linux when you create a
new file with touch, it does not have executable permissions, for good reason.
This would be a security issue.
