I didn't really think this should go into 2.3, but I'll
let you make the decision.  This patch fixes the
test_grp failure on RedHat 6.2/Alpha (asmodean) in the
snake-farm.  I thought it was specific to RH 6.2,
apparently it's not.  If you add a + as the last line
in /etc/group the test will fail on RH 9 too.

Walter Doerwald may know more about how best to fix
this.  I'm not certain if it's really a problem in the
extension module or the test.
If you want to fix the test, the patch is included here:

     def check_value(self, value):
         # check that a grp tuple has the entries and
         # attributes promised by the docs
+        if value == ('+', None, 0, []):
+            # some libc's return the last line of +
+            return
