cp only copies POSIX permissions. This is consistent with POSIX
semantics which states that when copying a file the POSIX ACL isn't
copied as well. Having file permissions set for "authenticated users"
but not for the actual owner is Win32 semantics. There's no 1:1
translation.
Which rather renders cygwin cp unsuitable for our task which is a shame.
