Re: Why do 'find' and 'ls' act differently on ACLs

They definitely should not. If they do, then there's a bug to be squashed.

I cannot replicate this behaviour.

Can you provide a minimal test case that reliably demonstrates what
you're seeing? A short script that creates some data, sets some
particular ACLs, and then invokes 'ls' and 'find' would be ideal.
