Default qmail GID change

Hi All,
For consistency across systems, I need to change GID's of qmail* and
alias users.
Is this only a UNIX gid change or I should watch out for pit falls?
Is there a qmail-chgid script :)
Thanks,
Vahid.

The UIDs and GIDs qmail uses are hardcoded in the binaries. You'll
need to recompile.

Not to my knowledge.
