ACLs, you mean the NTFS files owners, permissions, etc.? I've never
heard of any tools that does this.

Also I would recommend removing the rsync -p, -u and -g in
rsync_short_args if you use the rsnapshot+cwrsync method. This will
prevent rsync from trying to preserve the Windows permissions, owner and
group as they are obviously imcompatible. For some reasons I've had
rsync setting a folder without -x (exec) permissions which caused
problem later with rsnapshot.
