Description

In the patch introduced my HADOOP-4348 proposed modifications of hadoop-policy.xml read on more than one occasion:

+    The ACL is a comma-separated list of user and group names. The user and 
+    group list is separated by a blank. For e.g. "alice,bob users,wheel". 

It is either should read "separated by a semicolon" or the given example has to be changed.
