chmod, gcc

[Stephen Eldridge]

I have just reinstalled cygwin under WinXP.
(A minimal installation plus gcc.)
gcc (3.2) generates files which are not executable.
chmod u+x filename
fails claiming an incorrect parameter.
Going back to the previous cygwin package
lets me use chmod but it appears to have no effect.
 From a WinXP command line an attempt to run
such an executable gives an
"Access is denied" error message.
