and because someone decicdes to compile different the admin should
be forced to re-compile? that's not how the world works!

+1

UID_MIN                   500
UID_MAX                 60000

GID_MIN                   500
GID_MAX                 60000

still here in use and that won't change

if somebody enforces to change that at compile time he don't
care for any production setups not re-installed every year
and decides to break things just for fun
