This bug has apparently always been there.  I suspect that root used
to be a member of a group which has since been deleted.  In any case,
here's a diff to xlogin/verify.c to fix this.  However, it's minor
enough that I wouldn't put out a bugfix to 7.3 unless we find another
reason to modify the release (which we probably will).
