On this note, is there any chance that the NTEA attribute could only
apply when on an NTFS partition? I access NFS partitions, and I'm
forever getting warnings of the ilk:

cp: preserving permissions for k:/my.ps: Invalid request code

The cygcheck output correctly shows the filetypes of the different
drives:

a:  fd           N/A    N/A
c:  hd  NTFS    4008Mb  69% CP CS UN PA FC     Not Virus Protected
d:  hd  NTFS    4016Mb  70% CP CS UN PA FC
e:  cd           N/A    N/A
k:  net NFS Network  1994Mb  91% CP                 newtests
l:  net NTFS    4094Mb  17% CP CS UN PA FC
p:  net NTFS   60745Mb  80% CP CS UN PA FC
y:  net NTFS   20002Mb  84% CP CS UN PA FC

I suppose the answer will be cgf's Trade Marked "patches gratefully
accepted" though... :)
