I'm not sure I fully understand the issue here, you say the group objects has been modified by the upgrade ? I would really doubt that... When you have the issue could you check real group document objects using object editor, maybe there is an UI bug. > > Finally, the superadmin account itself has a regression.

See http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4566.
