If eliminating the extra shell overhead is really that important to you,
you could build a custom getfacl that emits that extra newline just
before it exits.

I haven't looked at the getfacl source code, but I don't imagine it
would be very difficult. Probably as simple as adding a 'printf("\n");'
line to the appropriate place(s).
