According to Bruno Haible on 5/21/2008 5:05 PM:
| Hi Eric,
|
| I'm looking at ACL support for gnulib. Can you reproduce this with a
| recent Cygwin? With a two-year-old Cygwin I got this:

I reproduced the same symptoms with cygwin 1.5.25-11.

|
| $ touch foo
|
| $ getfacl foo
| # file: foo
| # owner: haible
| # group: None
| user::rw-
| group::r--
| mask:rwx
| other:r--
|
| $ setfacl -m user:4:--x foo
| setfacl: No error
|
| $ echo $?
| 0
|
| $ getfacl foo
| # file: foo
| # owner: haible
| # group: None
| user::rw-
| group::r--
| mask:rwx
| other:r--
|
| The setfacl program
|   1. complained about "No error",
|   2. exited with exit code 0 although it did not execute the requested
change.
