spawn-fcgi processes ignore user's other groups

Description

I have observed the following behaviour with spawn-fcgi... http://lists.edgewall.com/archive/trac/2006-August/009484.html

It seems that spawn-fcgi processes are restricted to the user's default group (or the group specified with -g or both - not sure) but in any case, the user's other groups are totally ignored. In the above example, the trac user is a member or the subversion group but a permissiod denied error is received when trying to access the Subversion repository, despite the correct permissions being set.

I have a feeling this might be related to bug #78. By the look of the changeset, the change was only applied to server.c and not spawn-fcgi.c as well.

Ah I see that change was added later. Something's still not right then.

I've been experiencing the same thing. From looking at the code, I'd say it should work. But it doesn't for me.
