Hm... Perhaps not such a good idea after all -- the actual code seems to
use gid_t everywhere; it's just the RPC definitions that are mixing them
up...

I wonder whether it would be very ugly to abolish the one use of gid_t
in the RPC interfaces, but keep it in the code...

Or do it properly. How much work would it really be to use gid_t in all
the RPC interfaces that actually deal with GIDs?
