Why is that?
If most of them say something like "ACL found but not expected ..." I've
been told to not worry about them.
Access Control Lists can be created when you change the permissions on a
file or folder, and they may come about in other ways. They are not
something to worry about per se, but they can seriously slow down a
permissions check or repair if there are a lot of them.
If the time it takes is too excessive for your needs, they can be
removed in Terminal by an app named ACLr8:
