Corinna, please stop explaining things to me that I already know.

Corinna, of course I am aware of that. I have found your original post to
this list about it. Why would you think otherwise? And why would it change
anything?

I disagree. You are saying that it is unused, but a (perhaps erroneous)
SID would map into that space.

In any case I will use your mapping of S-1-0-65534 <-> 65534.
