* Version 5.3.1.
+ * tests/group-names: Use numeric group ids, not symbolic group names,
+ since the latter can have shell metacharacters in them (e.g., spaces).
+ Problem reported by Eric Blake.
+ * tests/chgrp/basic: Assume groups are numeric, not symbolic.
+ * tests/chgrp/deref: Likewise.
+ * tests/chgrp/posix-H: Likewise.
+ * tests/chgrp/recurse: Likewise.
