Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libnss-extrausers

If any /var/lib/extrausers/group entry has a gid < 500 then all entries
from this file are ignored. libnss-extrausers-0.4 is affected as well.

The following file works fine, the entries appear in 'getent group'
output.

extra0:x:500
extra1:x:501

This file however is not read properly, the entries are missing in
output.

extra0:x:499
extra1:x:501

The system in question is Ubuntu 10.04, libc6 version is 2.13-0ubuntu13
