I wonder why you chose making a script instead of using libutil? gr_* have now
the same level of features as of pw_* the benifit would have been to be able to
share the code with vipw(8) (maybe just have vigr(8) a hardlink so vipw(8)) and
to allow transparent change if one day he have a group db (aka gr_mkdb() is now
a simple rename(2) but could be changed to generate a db like pw_mkdb() does).

Best regards,
