I am not a Unix guru.
Could it be that your troubles stem from the problem described here
http://wishthatiknew.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/leopards-get-info-permissions-flaw/
An excerpt from the summary (halfway down the page):
(just done chmod -R -N /data to delete the ACLs on the dir that were
passed down from the root dir after I created it to actually give
myself the access to the /data dir that the permission modes said I had)
Maybe a real unix guru can provide some enlightenment and give advice
on a solution.
