Backuppc does not restore ACLS - windows or otherwise -- in part because it doesn't properly record and decode ACLs.
Check the archives for some posts on about 7 years ago. If you want to backup and restore ACLs, I suggest using a pre dump command and a post restore command to run something like 'subinacl' to copy and then restore acl's to the backup paths you are interested in. It's a bit of a hack but it can be made to work...
