Did you solve this? I got the same problem when upgrading from 1.1 M4 to 1.1.2. When editing global and space rights, the button "add access right entry" in the GlobalRightsEditorWelcome panel was missing.
I found a workaround to this by opening the WebPreferences page for the space a wanted to add access rights to, selecting "edit objects", and added a XWiki.XWikiGlobalRights object to the page. Today, when looking closer into this, I found that this misbehaviour has something to do with the $xwiki.rightsmanager.defaultUi variable. This variable tells which gui to use for acces management. By inspecting the code of the GlobalRightsEditorWelcome panel, I found that the button only is showed when the following condition is true: #if ($xwiki.rightsmanager.defaultUi == "stable") But for som reason, this variable was undefined, all though I had "xwiki.rights.defaultUi = new" in xwiki.cfg. What is the relationship between xwiki.rightsmanager.defaultUi and xwiki.rights.defaultUi ? I suspect a typo.. I've never seen the new access right manager in my wiki, so there is obviously something wrong here.. However, by modifying the condition: #if(!($xwiki.rightsmanager.defaultUi) || $xwiki.rightsmanager.defaultUi == "stable") everything is back to normal.
