Actually the change is a good thing as Suse stops to use a different usermod so it behaves like for all other distributions.

The reason for Opensuse using pwdutils instead of shadow are explained here: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-features/2012-10/msg00035.html. This is also the thread which initiates the change back to shadow.

So the add_user_to_group options have to be adjusted for the Opensuse versions sccordingly using -A for <12-3 and -a for >12.2 in distros.dat
