Here is the test I ran:

    $ cd /cygdrive/c

    $ touch ~/{alpha,bravo}.sh ~+/{charlie,delta}.sh

    $ chmod +x ~/bravo.sh ~+/delta.sh

    $ ls -l --color ~/{alpha,bravo}.sh ~+/{charlie,delta}.sh
    -rw-rw-r--+ 1 John None 0 Apr 10 16:51 /cygdrive/c/charlie.sh
    -rwxrwxr-x+ 1 John None 0 Apr 10 16:51 /cygdrive/c/delta.sh    (green)
    -rw-r--r--  1 John None 0 Apr 10 16:51 /home/John/alpha.sh
    -rwxrwxr-x  1 John None 0 Apr 10 16:51 /home/John/bravo.sh     (green)

So "charlie.sh" looks strange because it has that extra write permission.
However this is not a big deal for me. My concern was that everything was
showing up executable (green) when running "ls --color". So overall this is an
improvement, thanks.
