Ok, committed in svn revision 1561.

Note that the correct group name was "admin", not "adm" which is a separate
group; there doesn't seem to be an analogous group on Debian systems, so I
haven't attempted to do any templating here.  Debian maintainers, please
comment if you think we should be doing something better or if you think
this Ubuntu-specific change shouldn't be included in the package for
whatever reason.

Separate bug, you'll have to wait for me to put on my PAM hat for that one
