root is in too many groups

While I don't know about the PS/2 there was a bug (it's been fixed)
in AIX for the 6000 that matches this description.  The list of
groups that a process is "in" had duplicate members.  This was due
to using NIS (aka yp).  This sounds like a PS/2 software problem
so you might ask your IBM rep about it and mention that it was
fixed on the 6000.
