IMO, it should be the other way around, i.e. no error but a '+' to
signify an ACL, for two reasons:
1. Transperency. Since the UNIX permissions are emulated, one could
argue that all files should have the '+' displayed...

When a file is exclusivly locked by another application, then the
access to the ACL is entirely impossible. So we don't know anything
about the actual ACL. Cygwin's stat() returns with the POSIX permission

However, IMHO, ls should be changed to just print no error message,
