This is used by the mdns depot server. It runs with the privilige of a normal user, instead of becoming root and dropping its privs. The smf part of the code that specifies this lives in our gate at src/svc/pkg-mdns.xml. I had introduced this user and group when I putback mDNS support, but it looks like that was somehow accidentally omitted when we switched to building our packages natively. (See also src/util/distro-import/140/common/package\:pkg) Let me know if my explanation doesn't make sense.
