Huh? No, it doesn't, usually. My file has perms rw-r--r-- (644) and
that's perfectly fine. Also, I tried the same setting as you did,
i. e.
$ getfacl config
# file: config
# owner: corinna
# group: vinschen
user::rw-
group::---
group:SYSTEM:r-x
mask::r-x
other::---
And ssh still works as desired and does not throw any error.
You can also add g:SYSTEM:r-x to the directories and it should have
no negative side effect. I just did that with ~/.ssh and ssh still
works as expected.
