No because with Windows paths Cygwin doesn't look at Windows ACLs.  It

Where does it get the default set of ugo permissions?

Like I said before, they are hard-coded.  It will look at the read attribute
to decide whether or not to show write permissions for the file owner.  But
that's the extent of a glimpse into the real world, if you can call the
read attribute the "real world".
