interesting blanche bug

Message-Id: <200001210216.VAA19761@hodge-podge.mit.edu>

From: Garry Zacheiss <zacheiss@MIT.EDU>

	linux-testers claims to be a public list:

[zacheiss@hodge-podge] ~> qy glin linux-testers
name:        linux-testers
active:      1
publicflg:   1
hidden:      0
maillist:    1
grouplist:   0
gid:         create unique GID
ace_type:    USER
ace_name:    tb
description: for people helping to test the Linux/Athena release or parts of it
modtime:     20-jan-2000 20:55:45
modby:       zacheiss.root@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
modwith:     blanche

	 but attempting to add myself to it with my null instance fails:

[zacheiss@hodge-podge] ~> blanche linux-testers -a zacheiss
/usr/athena/bin/blanche: Insufficient permission to perform requested database access while adding member zacheiss to linux-testers

	 (it works if I use my root instance).  I am able to add myself
using 'moira', though.  

         I tried reproducing this with another public list (reuse) but
wasn't able to do so.

         Using a blanche client that predates generic acl support also works.
