....and the group id's have it!!!

Well, when all else fails, read the fine manual. Thanks to Colin Walter for
pointing out exactly where the information resides.

Q: Can you use group id's above 32767?
A: SHUUURE

By default, extended UIDs are not enabled in the kernel. To enable this
feature, you use sysconfig or the dxkerneltuner interface to set the value of
variable enable_extended_uids to 1 (enabled). Note that when extended UIDs and
GIDs are disabled, files owned by a user with an extended UID or GID will be
inaccessible to all users except root.
