Summary:                    gsed -i sets file permissions to 0000 due to acl
calls failing
Description: 
When using gsed 4.2.2 on a cluster file system (pxfs), optionally via
NFSv3, gsed -i is setting the file permissions to 0000 after printing
"Unknown system error". Clearing the permissions like this is far worse
than if it was to simply not preserve the ACLs.
