NOTE: Sending to xfs@oss.sgi.com instead of acl-devel since it doesn't
seem active anymore.
getfacl.c calls walk_tree() with WALK_TREE_DEREFERENCE. This causes a
stat() of symlinks which in turn causes S_ISDIR(st.st_mode) to be true
on symlinks.
This causes getfacl -P to return the contents of symlinks...
e.g.
$ mkdir -p test/sub
$ mkdir test/link
$ touch test/link/file
$ ln -s `pwd`/test/link test/sub/link
$ getfacl -P -R test/sub
# file: test/sub
# owner: philips
# group: users
user::rwx
group::r-x
other::r-x
# file: test/sub/link/file
# owner: philips
# group: users
user::rw-
group::r--
other::r--
After the fix:
$ getfacl -R -P test/sub/
# file: test/sub/
# owner: philips
# group: users
user::rwx
group::r-x
other::r-x
