Let me make sure I understand your setup.  It sounds like you have a
Zope folder called ACLUG that you want a host name to point to ie,
http://www.unclebob.org/ will pull the top page out of
/ACLUG/index_html.

To do this, you need to patch ZPublisher.  Zope does not undersand the
extra path elements if you rewrite anywhere into the object space other
than the root.  This ability is not built into the stock Zope so you
don't have a bug, you just need a feature.  I'm not sure who the author
or the current maintainer of the patch is.
