The 32bit version (2014-03-29 21:21:42 UTC  x86) seems to have at least the
portion of the AD code active that relates to the numerical GID bumping
(this only happens when the nsswitch.conf file exists, which I thought
should not have any effect without AD integration):

groups=1049089(passwd/group_GID_clash(1049089/10513))

I've removed the nsswitch.conf file that I had installed for the AD testing
and this issue goes away (I haven't tried to change the settings in the
file, they were "files db", sorry).

There is no such problem with the 64bit version, with or without having an
nsswitch.conf file present.


Regards,
Achim.
