No, we don't have any 'globbing' implemented.

The shell probably expanded the '*' for you which resulted into a cfs
command line like,
cfs setacl dir1 dir2 dir3 <User> <acl>
which the setacl command can't handle because it expects
cfs setacl dir1 <user> <acl> dir2 <user> <acl> dir3 <user> <acl>
(yeah a bit nasty isn't it)
We could leave the globbing up to the shell if we'd change the setacl
interface to:
cfs setacl <user> <acl> [dir]*
There are probably other cfs commands that could use a similar UI change
to make them more useful.
