Title:
  uid match no longer working in sudoers file on 14.04

Status in “sudo” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
  Sudo 1.8.9p5-1ubuntu1

  I'm having a problem using a numeric userid match in the sudoers file.

  I have the following in my sudoers file:

  User_Alias testuid = "#1000"
  testuid ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/id

  However my user with uid 1000 is not allowed to run the command, its
  not listed in sudo -l

  I've reported this bug upstream earlier:
  http://www.sudo.ws/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=640

  The commit that fixes it:
  http://www.sudo.ws/repos/sudo/rev/315eff4add59

  It is a regression introduced in sudo 1.8.9 and is present in Trusty and Utopic.
  Users might hit this issue if they upgrade from older ubuntu releases and use numeric uid match in sudoers file.
