On one of my boxes where I have a decent amount of (less than 50)

I have a sample group, and it appears to be hitting the byte limit.
If I add a single additional character to the group, it will break
things.
It appears to be a combination of multiple groups.
Can someone with some experience in this area comment? I can send
the group file itself if needed.
This box is 6.2-PRERELEASE from about mid-September. I have also
seen some issues on amd64, which I went through some debugging with
Konstantin Belousov back in November (cc'ed).
Make sure you have rev. 1.32.8.3 of lib/libc/gen/getgrent.c.
It was very strange thing with buggy code generated by compiler. I tracked it
down to exact assembler instruction missed in Mr. Anderson' instance of
libc.so. After that, conversation stopped.
Sorry about that Kostik, the last message was for me to try a newer
libc.so.6. If I recall, I tried that too. I'm not sure what else you
wanted me to try. If you have more ideas, I'm all ears.
Eric
