We haven't removed any groups recently. I think there may be bugs in
xrn which cause it to mistakenly believe that groups don't exist in
the active file. Unfortunately, xrn doesn't appear to be very well-
supported by its authors, so there's not a whole lot we can do about
it.
What were the specific groups you had trouble with?
