Ok, I've done some reading on this topic. osx ACLs are much more like
windows than posix. You can read about them here:

It seems that suse and unitedlinux have defined a mapping between
windows and posix acls for samba:

I suppose one could do the same mapping for osx rsync. However, this
will lose information when using rsync to backup a mac (all the
special rights).
What does rsync do when saving ACLs from windows?
