i must say i don't see the point though.
in many ways, ?[acl] are attractive as a whole. (the
way it is done and the distribution of the work is part
of the point, although it's worth noting that the
arrangement isn't novel to it.)  going back to .s production seems a
retrograde step to me.  indeed, some thought so even
in the 1970s!  it's fairly typical of gnu to have
stuck with it.
