Would there be any merit in having the number of groups root is a
member of be reduced below 8 for the default /etc/group file? Clearly
no one is going to buy a new release of ULTRIX because their NFS
server won't communicate with AIX 3.1. This would seem to imply that
AIX needs to have a change made to it.

Yes, anyone with a System/6000 should take a few hours out and play
with SMIT for a while. I use SMIT to keep TCP/IP and NFS running
on my Model 530. You can use it to create and manage filesystems,
users, devices, etc.
