It just so happens that I actually use Exim (on mail servers, ssmtp on
everything else), and it does use group memberships for various things.
It also happens that in F-11 it also somehow got GID 93 for itself in
addition to the UID 93 that it requests.  So useradd must have changed
its behavior quite recently.

Past behavior of useradd seems to do that automatically (or at least it
tried).

I don't think it's bad for exim to groupadd 93 first, but honestly I
don't know what happens to existing installations that may have a
different GID set up and I don't want to break anything.  I guess such
systems would be running rawhide and this is a bug fix, so....
