Ideally, yes.

But this seems contraindicated if that's going to generate packages with 
incorrect permissions, which seems to be the case.

(See https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2025-April/257942.html)

I *suspect* this needs an extra step in scallwag to remove inheritable 
ACL permissions before we start the build.

Once I have had a chance to try that and verify it fixes the problem, 
I'll remove the pin to 3.5.7
