Interesting. The other day I noticed the same problem on Windows Vista
(32 and 64 bit), when unpacking archives (e.g., when not using the
Cygwin version of 7-zip).

Interesting... When I list the files using a DOS path (say,
'ls -l foo\\bar' instead of 'ls -l foo/bar'), they do get proper
permissions. :)
