I'm still not convinced that we should mask this misconfiguration by skipping the test. AFAIK it's totally valid to have several names for a gid, but is it permitted the other way round? I'd bet you run into other trouble on such a system, too. Therefore, I see the failing test more as a heads-up to fix the configuration. Thanks & have a nice day, Berny
