Thank you. This is known and the solution is documented in the ntfs-3g 
manual page. You need to use the default_permissions option in such cases 
at the moment:

 uid=, gid=, umask=
     ...
     If you want to use the currently  limited  permission  handling  then 
     use these  options together  with the default_permissions, fmask and 
     dmask options. The usage of the default_permissions option is a  must  
     in  such cases.

This will be simplified and won't be required in the future.
