Fedora Core 2 and [near] POSIX ACLs over NFS

Redhat Enterprise has ACLs on both ext3 and NFS. But Fedora Core 2 appears
to lack support for this under NFS clients (I've not tried a Fedora-based
NFS server yet).

The most obvious symptom is that the mount command doesn't recognize the acl
(or noacl) option(s) for NFS mounts. It does for ext3, FWIW.

I see patches at:

        http://atrpms.net/dist/fc2/acl/

but I don't see explicit mention of NFS. Does anyone happen to know if the
above patches provide/fix ACL support over NFS, or should I use RPMs from
elsewhere for this?

Thanks...
