I hope this is the right place to report to. On Suse Linux nfs4 ACL
lists are not preserved if I copy files with ksh's builtin cp command.

To demonstrate:
1. touch aaa

2. nfs4_setfacl -a A::testuser@localdomain:RX aaa

3. nfs4_getfacl aaa
D::OWNER@:x
A::OWNER@:rwatTcCy
A::1000:rxtcy <----- new ACL entry
A::GROUP@:rtcy
A::EVERYONE@:rtcy

4. ksh -c 'builtin cp; cp aaa aaa_copy'

5. nfs4_getfacl aaa_copy
D::OWNER@:x
A::OWNER@:rwatTcCy
A::GROUP@:rxtcy
A::EVERYONE@:rtcy

The new ACL entry is missing in the copy. cp options -a and -p have no effect.

Is this functionality missing or just broken. ACL support is IMO a
mandatory enterprise system feature and needs to be supported.
