Similar to rm on cygwin, cannot unlink not owner, but for MINGW32. I tried chmod u+w path but this did not help.
user@computer /d
$ rm dir -d
rm: cannot unlink `dir': Not owner
user@computer /d
$ chmod u+w dir
user@computer /d
$ rm dir -d
rm: cannot unlink `dir': Not owner

@tnorthcutt mingw does not support changes through chmod. The developers expect you to maintain permissions via Windows
