Hi,I've just performed a fresh install of the latest (2.2.1) Cygwin on 64-bit Windows 7 and noticed 2 issues with the new version that I'd like to verify whether or not they are bugs: 2) The 'touch' command creates a file with the executable bit set [user@hostname ~]$ touch newfile.txt [user@hostname ~]$ ls -l newfile.txt -rwxrwx---+ 1 user Domain Users 0 Sep 22 17:21 newfile.txt I am fully aware that Windows programs (e.g. Eclipse and Windows Explorer) will create files with the executable bit set due to ACL and NTFS permissions. However, if I 'touch' a file inside an earlier version of Cygwin the file would be created without the executable bit set (i.e. 644). To be honest, I can't tell if this is caused by the new version of Cygwin or a Windows Update.

Thanks, ~WL
