Why is that a false negative? According to this:
> $ icacls .
> . S-1-5-32-766:(OI)(CI)(RX,W,WDAC,WO,DC)
> S-1-5-32-767:(OI)(CI)(Rc,S,REA,RA)

you indeed have no "execute/traverse" rights to this directory. It is
possible that Cygwin doesn't DTRT with the S-1-5-32-766 well-known
SID, which is NT_BUILTIN_CURRENT_OWNER SID. Perhaps it would be a
good idea to describe all this on the Cygwin mailing list.

So the shell doesn't check, while Emacs does, so what?

Irrelevant: native Windows Emacs doesn't examine the ACLs, so it
simply has no way of knowing this.

See the relevant functions in files.el. I see no problems here, all
of this is expected AFAIU.

As expected, given the ACLs.

It means what it says: you cannot list the directory (i.e. use
opendir/readdir APIs), but can successfully call 'access' on it.

The functions are reliable. It's just that you have some obscure
situation with the share owner, file/directory owner, and network
connection, and this combination bites you. It might also be a Cygwin
issue.
But I'm tired of wading through all this, so if
file-accessible-directory-p does the trick for you, let's forget about
the rest.
