I think we probably need to also do this if any "valid" bits are set.
IOW, if we explicitly set a default entry only for OWNER@, we also need
ACEs for group and other.

I'll send another revision in a bit. This time, I'll just resend an
updated patch of the original instead of a patch on a patch.

Sorry for the churn!
