	Hrrmm... so you did a clean install from floppies, etc. and the installed
version of /etc/group didn't have a $FreeBSD tag? I'm a little confused by
your account.

	Did you try to merge the two group files? If so, did you use the '%eb'
option to edit both files together? That would have allowed you to combine
the bits from both files that you wanted to keep into the merged version of
the file. The man page for sdiff has more details.
