Now that the XP bug is out of the way ... I would like come back to the change in
the output of 'id'.

Obviously, everything after '545(Users),' in the output of 'id' are "well-known"
concepts (Windows) to you (but, not to me) ...

... and I know Cygwin is not Linux/Unix ...

But as an Unix adept, I do not really care about the stuff after '545(Users),' in
the output of 'id', especially in case of a passwd file and a group file.

To me the stuff after '545(Users),' is ... well, superfluous (most certainly, most
of the time).

Perhaps other users think likewise ...

Henri
