Hi.

I just noticed something strange.  When I try to add a group using
groupadd and the name of the group has > 16 characters, groupadd will
fail.

However, when I use useradd to add a user with a name of more than 16
characters, it will happily also create a group with such a long name.

So, either groupadd should succeed in all the cases useradd would
succeed, or useradd should fail if groupadd would fail.
