I'd appreciate it if people could review my implementation of newgrp(1),
which runs suid root, for possible security flaws:
	http://people.freebsd.org/~tjr/newgrp.shar

It will only get installed suid root if ENABLE_NEWGRP=true is specified in
/etc/make.conf because most people won't need it. newgrp is required by
POSIX.2 Amd. 1 (User Portability Extension).

Thanks,

Tim
