+The groupadd from shadow does not allow upper case group names, the
+same is true for the upstream shadow. But distributions like
+Debian/Ubuntu/CentOS has their own way to cope with this problem,
+this patch is picked up from CentOS release 7.0 to relax the usernames
+restrictions to allow the upper case group names, and the relaxation is
+POSIX compliant because POSIX indicate that usernames are composed of
+characters from the portable filename character set [A-Za-z0-9._-].
