Hi,
thank you for the report - I can confirm the issue.
This was caused by fixing bug 1637601.
This was brought up on IRC two days ago and I was already polling for opinions on the original but.
There are way more such high-id users in there and I wonder why they would not show up.
Maybe there is some filtering mechanism that I didn't know about yet.
Adding a base-passwd task as they should be the best experts knowing how to deal with that (Authority for allocating such IDs).
Also I'm gonna subscribe all participants of the old bug here.
