Re: SMBFS mount's file cannot be made executable

I already figured where the problem was, in how cygwin convers (or, actually doesn't) the UNIX's "x" bit into
the native DAC for the underlying filesystem (to store as, again, "x" in the Linux share).  Missing that DAC, SMBD
returns "Access denied" for an attempt to execute the .exe file.

I don't think that any of the requested output is of any help or indication, rather than to actually show that the
execute permission is missing.
