This bug isn't actually fixed, because patch 71 only patches configure.in without patching configure, and there's no build-dependency on autoconf; so getgrouplist is never detected during build:

$ nm -Du `which id` | grep getgrouplist

Since this package uses dbs, I think the simplest solution is to
build-depend on autoconf and invoke it as part of the configure target. This solution has just been applied to Ubuntu in response to
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/coreutils/+bug/203723>.

Drat. coreutils used to call configure and I forgot that it doesn't anymore. I wonder, though if there's any point to using an autoconf check for our purposes--can anyone think of a reason not to simply call getgrouplist unconditionally in debian?
