There is no ftp group in the skel /usr/src/etc/group. So files cannot
really be installed in $RELEASEDIR as group ftp. What happened potentially
is that you did an unprived build, followed by a prived one and there were
some files in the destination directory that retained their old permissions.
The scripts that create the sets always use the password and group files
from $RELEASEDIR. If they don't it is a bug.
