[SunHELP] Re.Unix group limitation?

I am not sure, I have'nt seen anything that lists an upper limit on this. 
But I have found the following in man getgrpnam(3c)

     ERANGE
           The group file contains a line that exceeds 512 bytes.

     The getgrnam_r(), getgrgid_r(), and  getgrent_r()  functions
     may fail if:

     ERANGE
           Insufficient storage was supplied by buffer  and  buf-
           size  to  contain  the  data  to  be referenced by the
           resulting group structure.

I have a rather large groups on some systems I have, I get an error when 
running grpck, "Line too long". But it does'nt seem to have an adverse 
effect on any of the users in the group.
