I got some more information during today's debug session ...

useradd class is working perfectly for sysroot. I've added it to
systemd package (from meta-oe) and the "lock" group shows in sysroot
as expected. It fails for rootfs only.

After long time researching the reasioning of failure I found it. I am
going to send a patchset tomorrow.
