Does everything works as desired with the above setup?

I could see a possible problem as the USERGROUP related class which
takes care of adding the user/group (cswusergroup) is automatically
_appended_ to the SPKG_CLASSES variable by GAR.

IIRC correctly however, it must be listed _before_ the class ugfiles
class, which lists files that should have their ownership set to such
newly created accounts.
