Hi Sezai, That makes sense. I should have been more specific.
The person in question is a member of the Owners Group for the site in question. Groups have been setup properly and rechecked for the site. But when she goes to create a sub site, she's unable to setup new groups for it. She gets to the Setup Groups page but then it bums out when the page is submitted. The Full Control permission level is meant to be able to manage and enumerate permission groups so I'm baffled. Am I still missing something here?

That's how Full Control works Paul, you can even stop inheriting permissions in a list in a site and remove users who have the Full Control role of the site, they can be reduced to readers of a list and there's nothing they can do about it. What's most likely happening is the person with Full Control is not specified as the Group owner. Try and manage the group settings, view a Group and select Settings --> Group Settings (Manage settings such as group name and permissions) and where it specifies the Group owner, you can enter an AD User or a SharePoint Site Group and if the person's account is a member of the group owner site group they should be able to manage membership of the group.

They all have full control so I don't really get what's going on. One particular site owner has full control from the root site down and still no dice. The only solution (which isn't a solution at all) has been to make them site collection admins.
