I assume you really mean:

-rw-r--r--+ 9999 root     root            0 Oct 16 00:06 y
-rw-r--r--+9999 root     root            0 Oct 16 00:06 z

The latter. Interestingly, if there's no ACL it should be

-rw-r--r-- 9999 root     root            0 Oct 16 00:06 w
-rw-r--r-- 11111 root     root            0 Oct 16 00:06 lotsolinks

The 11th character is a blank if there's no ACL,
a plus if there is one.
