I cannot reproduce this.
I did a fresh install or ejabberd in a squeeze sandbox, configured it to
serve the "localhost" domain and added an admin user "kostix",
then I enabled mod_shared_roster and restarted the server.
Then I did:
# ejabberdctl srg-create test localhost Test 'A test group' test
# ejabberdctl srg-user-add kostix localhost test localhost
# ejabberdctl srg-user-add vasya localhost test localhost
Then I connected to the server using Tkabber and got the roster with the
said group "Test" and one user "vasya@localhost" in it, as expected.
I then enabled in-band registration, restarted the server and registered
that vasya@localhost user; after logging in it got the shared roster
with the group "Test" and the user "kostix@localhost" in it, again,
as expected.

I don't know for sure. I have contacted upstream about this, and they
are unaware of issues like this.
Also I'm a heavy user of shared rosters on my corporate server, and they
work OK (Squeeze/ejabberd 2.1.5-3).
Anyway, a couple of idea to try:
* Does this problem also happen when you use web admin interface?
* Does this happen with different XMPP clients?
* Are you sure nothing interferes with the SRG management?
I mean, like you having mod_shared_roster_ldap installed (crazy idea,
but still).
* What if you play with your server in some clean-room environment (say,
do a fresh install in a chroot, configure LDAP auth, enable
mod_shared_roster and then try out creating groups).
