The TrustedBSD patches require recent -CURRENT systems, as they rely on extended attributes, only available in -CURRENT. As such they're not ready for production use, although I've been using most of the features on my workstation and a server or two for the past few months, including ACLs and Capabilities. The ACL support currently lacks a POSIX.2c-compliant ACL setting tool, although it does include tools for settings ACLs in a non-compliant manner. If you're interested in contributing in that area, that would also be welcome.
