It is in the sense that there is no standard track for ACIs, so their 
primary purpose (i.e. being access rules independent of the 
implementation and stored in the data itself, so tha they can be safely 
propagated by replication, proxying and so and still honored by the DSAs 
that handle the data) is defeated.  However, they seem to work as 
intended.  In 2.3, some effort is being put in determining if they 
suffer from deadlocking, and apparently they don't; I cannot say the 
same for erlier releases because no such testing has been done 
consistently, AFAIK.
