ACL patch in in RHEL. There was a bug in ACL code. The bug is resolved
now so we can expect ACL in the next Fedora release (probably with 2.6.x
kernel).

The second reason is decision to keep Fedora kernel close to vanilla as
much as possible because a huge set of patches needs more developers
resources (and RHEL is able to pay to them but Fedora is not).
