GID is present in Export map only if it was changed (for some existing
system group). It may have a sense to not export GID's of new'ly created
group because they are usually not important and yast can easily generate
new ones during autinstallation. This way we also avoid possible conflicts
with GID's of new groups added by rpm's script during installation.
But even in current version it should be possible to create a group with
specific GID, which is defined in the profile (as "gid" or "gidnumber"
value).
