Michael Orlitzky reports and helps fix bug in Drupal distribution

Right now Drupal is unusable with filesystem (POSIX) ACLs. It's been broken for years. This was previously #944582: ./sites/default/files directory permission check is incorrect during install AND status report and #1333390: file_prepare_directory() / is_writable() on Linux don't support ACLs which are/were doomed to failure.

About Drupal

Drupal is an open-source content-management framework written in PHP and distributed under the GNU General Public License. It is used as a back-end framework for at least 2.1% of all Web sites worldwide ranging from personal blogs to corporate, political, and government sites including WhiteHouse.gov and data.gov.uk. It is also used for knowledge management and business collaboration.

The standard release of Drupal, known as Drupal core, contains basic features common to content management systems. These include user account registration and maintenance, menu management, RSS feeds, taxonomy, page layout customization, and system administration. The Drupal core installation can serve as a simple Web site, a single- or multi-user blog, an Internet forum, or a community Web site providing for user-generated content.

As of October 2014, there are more than 30,000 community-contributed addons, known as contributed modules, available to alter and extend Drupal's core capabilities and add new features or customize Drupal's behavior and appearance. The Drupal community has more than 1 million members (as of October 2013) and 31,000 Developers (as of February 2014).
