The following is taken from "The LOCAL Provider" section on the 
HOWTO_Configure page on the wiki:

"Using Magic Private groups bring the benefit of better Windows 
Interoperability (in Windows, the ID and name spaces are unique) and 
also avoids creating a group for every user, thus cluttering the group 
space. Also, for NSS calls, every user is actually returned as user's 
private group without having to explicitly create the group, thus having 
the same effect as User Private Groups "

The 2nd sentence doesn't quite add up.

thanks
