id and groups work around an AFS-related bug whereby those programs
would print an invalid group number, when given no user-name argument.

+ user. Showing SELinux context of user who executed id command could
+ be misleading.
+
ls --color no longer outputs unnecessary escape sequences
seq gives better diagnostics for invalid formats.
