Yep. Brain-too-tired-error. :-)
Actually, the best way would have been:
cp download.cgi /tmp
rm download.cgi
mv /tmp/download.cgi .
chmod 755 download.cgi
One of the perks of Unix is, that you can unlink the file (write
permission to the directory) but not change its permissions.
Sorry for the noise.

Is there some type of ACL on this that won't allow me (member of group

No, that's just how chmod works:
$ man chmod
...
Only the owner of a file or the super-user is permitted to change the
mode of a file.
