Conffigure is run as follows:

#! /bin/sh
CFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include" \
LDFLAGS="-R/opt/local/samba4/lib:/opt/local/samba4/lib/private
         -L/opt/local/lib" \
./configure configure --prefix=/opt/local/samba4

The output lines from configure which mention ACLs are:

Checking for header acl/libacl.h : no 
Checking for header sys/acl.h    : yes 
Checking for _acl                : ok 
Checking for __acl               : not found 
Checking for _facl               : ok 
Checking for __facl              : not found 
Checking for library acl         : not found 
Checking for acl_get_file        : not found 
Checking for POSIX ACL support   : not found 
Checking for header sys/acl.h    : yes 
Checking for _acl                : ok 
Checking for __acl               : not found 
Checking for _facl               : ok 
Checking for __facl              : not found 
Checking for library acl         : not found 
Checking for acl_get_file        : not found 
Checking for POSIX ACL support   : not found
