Hmm. looks like the access code in xfs won't let you through.

What unix-style bits do you have on that directory?
I've also had problems with that. xfs does it's checking based both on
unix bits and acls and when the directory hasn't S_IRUSR | S_IXUSR the
access check fails even when you have the corerct authentication.

I'm not sure if that is correct. I'll do some experiments on how the real
client behaves.
