Yeah, I think I'm right; from a cast of current test shadow:

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/shadow-4.0.17'
`etc/limits' -> `/etc/limits'
`etc/login.access' -> `/etc/login.access'
`etc/login.defs' -> `/etc/login.defs'
`etc/useradd' -> `/etc/default/useradd'
Something went wrong with adding the group users with gid 1000
so going to stop here...

I'm going to revert those last couple of changes to shadow before this
breaks more boxes, whatever it is.
