pam_group

Yeah I agree, this is a problem. But it can be solved with pam_group. Just add
auth       optional   pam_group.so
to the files cron, gdm, login, other, ssh, and su in "/etc/pam.d". Then edit /etc/security/group.conf and add this:
*;*;*;Al0000-2400;users audio floppy cdrom
As you can see, I add the users group. I do this to be able to have all users use umask 007 but still have some directories be accessible by all by being owned by the users group and setting the setgid (g+s) bit on it.
