* 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.
* 'cp S D' is no longer subject to a race: if an existing D were
removed between the initial stat and subsequent
open-without-O_CREAT, cp would fail with a confusing diagnostic
saying that the destination, D, was not found. Now, in this
unusual case, it retries the open (but with O_CREAT), and hence
usually succeeds. With NFS attribute caching, the condition was
particularly easy to trigger, since there, the removal of D could
precede the initial stat. [This bug was present in "the
beginning".] (bnc#760926).
