File mode 0700 for windows-created files?

[Jim Garrison]

Every file created by a non-Cygwin app appears in Cygwin
with mode 0700.  I've read the documents pertaining to
ntfs permissions in Cygwin but don't see a way to configure
things so that Cygwin sees them as a more reasonable 0755
or 0644 (for non-executables).  This is a nuisance since
when I upload such files to a Solaris system with scp,
even without -p, the files end up 0700 in Solaris as well.
If I chmod the files in Cygwin (to 0755) then then end up
0755 after uploading.

I have a valid /etc/passwd and /etc/group (generated by
mkpasswd and mkgroup).

Is it possible to configure Cygwin so it sees
non-Cygwin-created files as 0644 or 0755?
