Well, this is sort of missing the point, which is 

  "why are the packets denied?"

I know that logged packets are punted, but on a *L2 switch*, no transit(!)
packets should ever hit a vlan ACL (which others confirmed, thanks), so
the question "is logging good or bad" is somewhat moot.  

Actually it was quite good that logging was on, because otherwise we would 
have seen "some packet drops" with no hint where it was happening...
