I'm not sure about that. In case the default group does not exist, only the
above warning is issued which can safely be ignored. However, in case the
group does exist chgrp() automagically just works without any further
configuration, which I consider to be a feature. It might make sense to remove
the warning in case no group has been configured though.

Just my 0.02.

Cheers,
Sebastian
