Follow-up Comment #2, task #1030 (project savane):
That's an interesting issue.
Note that the current 2.6 kernels support 65536 groups per users, though
(provided, as mentioned elsewhere, that your sysconf(3) returns accurate
values).
Else you could maintain a list of groups that the backend truly created (ie
that weren't created before for other purposes). This also requires an
upgrade script that would trust that the current group list in the DB never
overrode any previously existing groups.
When creating a new group, and if the group already exists, the project
should be skipped and some output be produced on stderr (well as usual).
