It's explained in the announcement.

Well, that's not what the DLL is supposed to do.  The idea of the ACL
code is not to fake wrong ownership, it tries to evaluate POSIX ACLs as
correctly as possible given the underlying Windows ACL.

In your case the owner of the dir *is* the administrators group,
otherwise Cygwin wouldn't show that.  If you want to be owner you have
to make yourself actually owner, either in the Windows file security
tab, or by using Cygwin's chown as Admin.

Note that the output of icacls does not tell you anything about
ownership.  The ACL does not contain this information.  For all we know
from this icacls output, the owner of the above ACL could be the "Guest"
user.
