We have sometimes seen anomalies like this on cross-system restores. The
restore recreated the numeric user and group assignments the files had on
their original host. Unfortunately, the /etc/passwd file on the target
system had a different mapping between numeric user IDs and user names
than the /etc/passwd file on the original host, and the /etc/group file
had a different mapping between numeric group IDs and group names.
