file mode handling

Hello,

I am running both mingw and Cygwin on my Windows 8 system.

My problem is that if I have a file that reports file mode 755 on Cygwin it reports 644 on MinGW. This is causing problems in some cases.

Is there a way to configure MinGW to report the same file mode as Cygwin?

I assume this has to do with the method used by Cygwin to map the execute permission as this is not part of NTFS by default.

Best Regards,
Wim Vervoorn
