For what it's worth I can't seem to observe this with a directory with
similar permissions:
$ perl -e 'exit !(-r $ARGV[0])' /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/sysinternals/
&& echo yep
yep
$ ls -ld /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/sysinternals/
drwx------+ 3 brian None 0 Mar 6 16:00 /cygdrive/c/Program\
Files/sysinternals//
$ getfacl /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/sysinternals/
# file: /cygdrive/c/Program Files/sysinternals/
# owner: brian
# group: None
user::rwx
group::---
group:root:rwx
group:SYSTEM:rwx
group:Users:rwx
group:Power Users:rwx
mask:rwx
other:---
default:user::rwx
default:group:root:rwx
default:group:SYSTEM:rwx
default:group:Users:rwx
default:group:Power Users:rwx
default:mask:rwx
This is also with perl 5.8.6-4.
The only difference I can see in the getfacl output is that on yours,
the Users group has r-x, whereas on mine it's rwx. I don't know how or
why 'w' permission on a directory would affect the "-r" test though.
xcacls output below:
