[Mingw-msys] chmod broken?

[Chris S. <ir0...@gm...>]

I can't get chmod to work with MSYS 1.0.12:

csutclif@EUSH000065 ~
$ uname -a
MINGW32_NT-5.1 EUSH000065 1.0.12(0.46/3/2) 2010-01-05 20:26 i686 Msys

csutclif@EUSH000065 ~
$ touch test.txt

csutclif@EUSH000065 ~
$ ls -l test.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 csutclif Administrators 0 Feb 19 06:33 test.txt

csutclif@EUSH000065 ~
$ chmod g+w test.txt

csutclif@EUSH000065 ~
$ ls -l test.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 csutclif Administrators 0 Feb 19 06:33 test.txt

csutclif@EUSH000065 ~
$ chmod --version
chmod (GNU coreutils) 5.97

I believe I'm using the correct version of chmod:

csutclif@EUSH000065 ~
$ ls -l /bin/chmod
-rwxr-xr-x 1 csutclif Administrators 1063424 Nov  6 02:09 /bin/chmod*

Is this a known issue with MSYS?

Chris
