Gilles,

You need to delete and then re-create your extra user folders,
unfortunately. The nature of the bug is such that user folders
created while the bug was present will not be automatically
fixed by the code update.

If this is an extreme problem for you, you can shutdown your
Zope process, cd to your installation's lib/python directory,
start Python and do something like the following for each of
your extra user folders:


# for each of your broken user folders, you need to
# assign it to the __allow_groups__ variable of its
# container object

import Main
myuserfolder=Main.app.foobar.acl_users
Main.app.foobar.__allow_groups__=myuserfolder
get_transaction().commit()


Hope this helps!
