For some reason it doesn't.

  # cd coreutils-6.10/src
  # ./id -a
  uid=0(root) gid=0(wheel) groups=0(wheel),1(daemon),8(procview),
      2(kmem),29(certusers),3(sys),9(procmod),4(tty),
      102(com.apple.sharepoint.group.2),5(operator),80(admin),20(staff),
      101(com.apple.sharepoint.group.1)
  # ./rm -rf f g
  # echo a > f
  # ./chown +0:+0 f
  # ls -ld . f
  drwxr-xr-x  3 pipping  staff  11186 Jan 26 12:29 .
  -rw-r--r--  1 root     wheel      2 Jan 26 12:29 f
  # ./cp f g
  # ls -l g
  -rw-r--r--  1 root  staff  2 Jan 26 12:29 g

  used instead btw )
