 In that case, are we better off chopping it out entirely and leaving
 it to library code, or making it a simple yes/no indicator that there
 are some? (Chopping it out's probably the best thing)

Chopping off sounds like less coding :-)

I think the same general KISS approach applies here that you chose with
the time handling - no need to implement calendar algorithms in Parrot
lowest layer, so I don't think trying to abstract Universal ACL schema
is a priority.  If someone after Parrot 1.0 wants to implement Tibetan
lunar calendar or POSIX 1.e ACLs in IMC, let them.  The operative word
being "them".

Mmmm, point. OK, death to ACLs! -- Dan
