Strange. Can you run "sb2 -eR -d groupadd libuuid" on both environments, and send the debug logs directly to me?

Unfortunately this is not the first time when there are mystic symptoms with bash, which happen on one machine but not elsewhere. If you find a way to reproduce that in a deterministic manner, then debugging would be a lot easier. Otherwise, it is almost impossible for me - I haven't seen that problem here.
