------- Additional Comments From matthijs at stdin.nl  2008-11-06 01:30 CST -------
It seems that setfacl also ignores this option (or rather, follows symlinks even
when -L is not specified, -P only applies to symlinks specified on the
commandline), which can be rather nasty.

-P does work properly without -R.
