Yes. I was aware when writing it that ACL modifications would not be
reflected, because ACLs aren't run for cmdline tests. I neglected to
document this part explicitly though, which is a bug.

It was implicit in the spec documentation:

This debugging option causes Exim to scan the given file, using the
malware scanning framework. The option of av_scanner influences this
option, so if av_scanner's value is dependent upon an expansion then
the expansion should have defaults which apply to this invocation.

I'll update that now to explicitly note that ACLs are not invoked.

Thanks for the catch,
