Default ACLs will inherit down from the parent directory when new objects are 
created, yes. As far as I know there is no code in CVS that would explicitly 
set ACLs. Could it be that directories are created somewhere else and into 
the CVS repository in some cases? This could explain the effect, even though 
it would be a weird thing to do.
