Tony's original post answered my questions (rchacl in the root).  I
originally tried this with chacl, prior to discovering rchacl.  I did
not know this was allowed.

I am also interested in the answer to this question.  I have
AclMode=compat.  I assume setting it to normal would also accomplish
what I am trying to do, but would at the same time have other effects.
  As I read it, as long as a default acl is always found, then AclMode
(compat vs. normal) makes not difference.  On the other hand, when no
default acl is found, then the AclMode kicks in, and either grants
access (compat) or denies access (normal) by default.  Is this
correct?
