aclcontains() is defined in a bizarre and useless fashion in pre-7.1
releases --- IIRC, it returns T in this example if there is an entry
mentioning user pvi in the ACL list, regardless of whether it grants
w access or not. This is changed for 7.1, but it still doesn't tell
you what you really want to know, which is whether pvi has w access
(possibly via a group) or not.

There's no good way at the moment. Sorry.
