Yes, but it does not know the +x syntax.

Not that particular syntax (hey, you can always 'system("chmod +x $f")'),
but it does allow Fcntl constants (e.g., 'chmod
S_IRWXU|S_IRGRP|S_IXGRP|S_IROTH|S_IXOTH $f' -- still from the above
perldoc page), and it uses the same octal mode values as the command-line
chmod (see "man chmod").  If you want to add the executable bits for
everyone, something like 'chmod 0111|((stat $f)[2]&07777), $f' should
work.

None of this is Cygwin-specific.

Thanks, this is very useful for me in this context (and other times too I guess).
