You can in 8.4 and up.  Previous versions only know how to GROUP BY
sortable columns, which requires a btree opclass, which xid doesn't
have and really can't have because it doesn't have a linear ordering.
There is a hash opclass for it, though, so in versions that know how to
GROUP BY using hashing, it'll work.

No, it's pretty irrelevant ...
