[issue7365] grp and pwd should treat uid and gid as unsigned

[Sandro Tosi]

Sandro Tosi <sandro.tosi at gmail.com> added the comment:

I took the freedom to refresh the patch against default (I don't know yet the policies for what to backport and what not), built a debug version of python with the patch applied and run the test suite with no regression.

A test would be nice to be added, but I'm not sure how to do that (is test_grp.py reading local /etc/groups or so?).

I'd be happy another pair of eyes to look at the patch, but it seems worth to be committing it (modulo the backport thing: what lower version should be targetting?).
