You need to do more than change it to "defaults", tried that initially, 
but it doesn't work. You can leave it as "acl,user_xattr", but the 
kernel needs to be rebuilt with POSIX ACL's in the config for whatever 
filesystems you have. That was the only way I could get it to behave. As 
mentioned above, doing a 9.0 to 9.1 upgrade, it kept "defaults" and was 
fine, but for a new install, it obviously does more than just change 
/etc/fstab and relies on a kernel built with ACL's.
