This symbol seems to be private:

Code Block  
% nm /System/Library/Extensions/System.kext/PlugIns/Private.kext/Private | grep kauth_cred_grnam2guid
								 U _kauth_cred_grnam2guid


That’s kinda weird because it’s declared in a public header and there’s no obvious indication that you shouldn’t be using it. This conundrum is definitely bugworthy IMO.

Please post your bug number, just for the record.
