How Cygwin translates the Unix permissions set by the receiving rsync
into NTFS ACLs is beyond me, but this article attempts to describe it:

http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html

Anyway, if telling Cygwin to grant everyone read permission seems to be
enough to solve the problem, pass --chmod=ugo+r to rsync to have it
chmod files as they are transferred.  You need at least rsync 2.6.7 on
the sender for this to work.
