Wait, this makes sense: You can't groupadd from shadow's install during an
upgrade; shadow is dispelled at that point and groupadd's auth chain is not
going to work!

Nothing to do with the 13600 fix in that case.

Personally I think its a very bad choice to do any kind of account
manipulation during INSTALL anyway it really should be done in FINAL
(when its needed for run time) or PRE_BUILD (when its needed for
compile time) but I don't think we really have an enforced policy
about it... I brought it up a while ago somewhere but was shot down
(iirc) don't remember the complete arguments though.
