unfortunately, so convert them over to sanity.
* man/groupmems.8.xml, man/gpasswd.1.xml: Added option -h/--help.
* NEWS, libmisc/find_new_gid.c, libmisc/find_new_uid.c: Since

reverse order, accounts are packed close to SYS_?ID_MAX if
SYS_?ID_MIN is already used but there are still dome gaps.

getpwuid / getgrgid should be more efficient on LDAP configured
systems with many accounts.
libmisc/xgetpwuid.c, libmisc/xgetgrgid.c, libmisc/xgetspnam.c: Do
