Define "well"...

If you are on Win2k3 (not sure but you might need R2), there is an NFS 
client included as a Windows component (part of SUA). Otherwise you can 
use the one from SFU (Services for Unix - google it). It works about as 
well with Cygwin as anything is likely going to; anything you create on 
the mount will have a+x permission on UNIX FS, similar to how anything 
you create outside of Cygwin has a+x permissions in Cygwin.
