Subject: | bug#20884: copying NFS4 ACLs portably |

From the comments in the source it looks as though the fchmod is setafter the xattrs are copied because the unix mode could interfere with setting the xattrs. It's also possible that setting the mode before the ACL could open up more permissions than desired. OTOH, blowing the ACL away doesn't seem useful either. Since the issue arises on an NFS mount, I don't see an obvious way to tailor the behavior to the platform. Am I missing anything in this diagnosis? Has this already been hashed out (my google-fu is too weak to find relevant hits)?
