Well you could run either AIX or HP-UX which have supported ACLs for ages, I think that SGIs XFS also may support ACLs and there are some other bolt-on ACL systems for other Unixs as explained by xsprite!
XFS seems to have some ACL support, conforming to POSIX ACLs http://acl.bestbits.at/pre/
Now what you really are asking for is a system supported by all vendors which is probably more difficult....
Admittedly it might be over the top for single user uses, but what about AFS? http://www.faqs.org/faqs/afs-faq/ There's support for it from hp, next, dec, ibm, sun, sgi, winnt (client only afaik), linux, (net|open|free)bsd..
