 MacOS uses ACL for setting permissions on files. Therefore, tools like
 /bin/chmod and /bin/ls do handle Access Control Lists via some switches.

 However, the tools provided by MacPorts' coreutils don't support ACL. That
 is extremely problematic because it prevents proper files management and
 broke scripts.

 MacPorts's coreutils tools must support ACL.
