Works for me with the 2015-05-14 x86_64 snapshot.
However, note that
> getent passwd
and
> getent group
output duplicate lines for some users/groups:
> getent group | wc
18 31 731
> getent group | sort -u | wc
15 28 587
> getent passwd | wc
9 13 677
> getent passwd | sort -u | wc
6 9 437
Bug or feature?
