Oh right, that's what I wasn't putting together. Sorry for making you repeat

Is unusual GID numbering the only impact, or does this cause more significant
problems? I guess user code that tries to statically assign GID 1000 will
break.
I agree it should be fixed. In unstable it seems reasonable to change the
config. But I'm not sure I think it warrants a stable update.
