[Zope-CMF] portal_membership.checkPermission('List portal members', member)

[Florent Guillaume]

checkPermission takes as parameters a permission and an object. You are
giving it a permission and a member object, which is not correct. Use:
	portal_membership.checkPermission('xxx', member.getHomeFolder())
