Well, there's the not backard compatible part....

That's really weird.  That means that this is failing:

  if (ftruncate(GROUPfd, GROUPfilesize(GROUPcount)) < 0) {
    syslog(L_FATAL, "%s: Could not extend group.index: %m", LocalLogName);
    return false;
  }

but I don't understand how it could.  The Solaris man page says that
ftruncate failing with that error message means that the length argument
is negative or GROUPfd isn't open for writing, but innd should certainly
have buffindexed open for writing....
