And all is working as expected ?

I'm specially interesting in :

- l3vpn ldp/rvsp signaled (and is auto-export is working ?), and also is 
Mpls (ldp/rvsp signaled not the problem) work on tagged link ?
- l2circuit (ldp based), l2vpn (bgp/rvsp based)

Subsidiary question 1 : do you know if they are a maximum label stack 
depth on acx?
Subsidiary question 2 : have you test if the snmp counter on vlan, or 
sub interface work as expected ?

They are know limitations I know on Ex4550.

Good luck ;)
