- * src/chgrp.c (parse_group): Fail when given an invalid group name.
- Reported as Debian Bug#4119 via Erick Branderhorst (branderh@IAEhv.nl).
+ * src/chgrp.c (parse_group): Don't abort when given a group number
+ larger than INT_MAX. Fix bug whereby root could run
+ `chgrp INVALID-GROUP FILE' and it wouldn't fail, but rather would
+ change FILE's group to some indeterminate value. This problem
+ was reported as Debian Bug#4119 via Erick Branderhorst
+ (branderh@IAEhv.nl).
Declare pointer parameters const as appropriate.
