RedHat has patched their kernel - but don't ask me what patches they 
applied.

I got ACL support using _XFS_ with the kernel sources I got from from 
cvs/SGI. For further instructions to check out the sources see 
http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/cvs_download.html

After editing the configure script of samba 2.2.3 as David Lukastik 
supposed about a week agi in this list:

There are two lines you have to edit. Thats the way I could configure 
and compile samba with ACL support (I couldn't build a debian package 
with ACL support - but I'm in contact with the people at debian).
