Tramp doesn't do something special wrt ACLs. Emacs has the functions
file-acl and set-file-acl, and Tramp provides an own implementation for
them in some of its backends (tramp-sh.el, tramp-smb.el, tramp-sudoedit.el).

Tramp doesn't call these functions itself. How they are used is out of
Tramp control. Should Tramp care about?

How does the error look like in detail? Could you, pls, set
tramp-verbose to 6, run your test, and show the resulting Tramp debug buffer?
