Over the weekend it occured to me that the acl(2) function created ACLs
which not aligned well with the ACLs created by open(2),chmod(2), etc.
Yesterday I fixed the acl(2) function to create ACLs the same way as 
the other functions, especially in terms of the owner and group entries
and the SE_DACL_PROTECTED flag.  The changes are in the latest snapshot
from https://cygwin.com/snapshots/  Please give them a try.


Thanks,
