<para><envar>(no)traverse</envar> - This option only affects NT systems.
If set, Cygwin handles file permissions so that the parent directories'
permissions are checked, as it's default on POSIX systems. If not set,
only the file's own permissions are taken into account. This is the
default on Windows and called "bypass traverse checking". Default was
"traverse" in version 1.5.13 and 1.5.14. Beginning with 1.5.15, traverse
checking is disabled again since it's not correctly implemented by Microsoft
and it's behaviour is getting worse with each new OS version. Unprivileged
terminal server sessions are practically impossible with traverse checking
switched on. So, use at your own risk.</para>
