[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
No, these two changes are (from the functional point of view) independent - i.e. acl handling will work regardless of the order these 2 are applied.
The only difference is, that once both are applied, we could link coreutils w/o libacl

Doesn't this sort of change require the qcopy-acl.c change in Gnulib? If
so, we need to wait for that Gnulib change before installing this
change, right? Otherwise we won't be copying ACLs correctly.
