Hm, I believe I wasn't quite clear. You can't use these methods in the
folder for this. You need to add a so-called UserFolder. Add it by using
the following dtml-command:

manage_addUserFolder()

then by
 
  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('name', '<newname>')">
  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('password', '<pwrd>')">
  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('confirm', '<pwrd>')">
  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('roles', ['<desiredRole>', ...])">
  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('domains', ['<desiredDomain>', ...])">
  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('submit', 'Add')">
  <dtml-call "acl_users.manage_users(submit='Add', REQUEST=REQUEST )">

you add a user.
