Also add a test that would catch this leak with --huntrleaks.

Also add a test that would catch this leak with `--huntrleaks`.
Alas, the test for `extra_groups` also exposes an inconsistency
in our error reporting: we use a custom ValueError for `extra_groups`,
but propagate OverflowError for `user` and `group`.
