You get the warning most likely because the filesystem that
/var/log/journal or /run/log/journal are on does not support ACL. So
users in the wheel and adm groups will not be given access to the
journal through ACLs.
 
This isn't really a problem — apart from the unsightly warning in the
logs, and the missing access, this should not have any other effects.

I pushed a commit to reduce the warning to debug level if the fs
does not support ACLs.
