I have found this problem on two new installs and I added the groups via 
the command line.  They show up but I think they didn't get transfered 
to shadow groups properly.

There is a bug report submitted.

As for those that support Windows in bug problems.  There is a bug that 
I read about this morning that has been public knowledge since April and 
still isn't fixed.  Now a new virus.  Here a bug is on a new upgraded 
package and it will probably be fixed by the end of the week if not 
sooner.  Heck it is a python coding issue.

Also, FC4 is as close to bleeding edge that is safe but I rely on it to 
work.  So one little thing doesn't work as expected.
