One could get the impression that "system." attributes are kept obscure
by developers' intention.

I now found in the man page a few sentences which could be the origin of
my dim (and distorted) memories about this name space:

  -m pattern, --match=pattern
     Only  include attributes with names matching the regular expression
     pattern.  The  default  value  for  pattern  is  "^user\\.",  which
     includes  all the attributes in the user namespace. Specify "-" for
     including all attributes.

So what do you get from this run ?

  getfattr -d -m - test.sh

It seems that
  man 5 nfs4_acl
gives explanations of the settings under "ACE FLAGS:".

I expect that nfs4_setfacl -x could remove the offending attribute, if not
setfacl -x does.
(I would rather move this file to my directory tree of strange files,
which i keep for testing purposes.)


Have a nice day :)
