* Noteworthy changes in release ?.? (????-??-??) [?]
+** Bug fixes
+
+ id and groups, when invoked with no user name argument, would print
+ the default group ID listed in the password database, and sometimes
+ that ID would be neither real nor effective. For example, when run
+ set-GID, or in a session for which the default group has just been
+ changed, the new group ID would be listed, even though it is not
+ yet effective.
+
** New features
fmt now accepts the --goal=WIDTH (-g) option.
