Hi,
getfacl(1) uses acl_to_text(3) which truncates user names and group
names to UT_NAMESIZE characters. UT_NAMESIZE is defined in
/usr/include/utmp.h and it's default value is 16.
Comment in src/lib/libc/posix1e/acl_support.c says:
* Given a uid/gid, return a username/groupname for the text form of an ACL.
* Note that we truncate user and group names, rather than error out, as
* this is consistent with other tools manipulating user and group names.
