This is exactly the corner case that makes trouble indeed :-)
If you always use a gid in ACLs for every SID, user or group, you
wouldn't have this problem because in that case you could always set the
gid with setgroups() :-)
I know this is not something you'd like to see on any system but it is
nice to see that in theory you could solve the corner cases :)
Simo.
