Just use acl_extended_file(), please.
Sorry, I've lost context. I assume you're not suggesting that we revert
the patch I recently installed, which I thought came from your suggestion:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=41e7b7e0d159d8ac0eb385964119f350ac9dfc3f
Are you suggesting that we remove all the code in
gnulib/lib/file-has-acl.c that depends __CYGWIN__ being defined? Or are
you suggesting that we arrange for USE_LINUX_ATTR to not be defined when
running on Cygwin? Or something else?
A proposed patch would help clarify what you're suggesting.
