A couple of quick comments. The intent of the patch is to provide the
correct array type for the second argument of getgroups on the target system.
This should now be correct in all cases when the build system is the
same as the target system. If the two are not the same, the type is
guessed based on empirical knowledge about the target. There may be
cases where this doesn't work but the only effect is the wrong type
for the second argument of getgroups. If such cases are reported, it
is trivial to modify configure.in to correct the behaviour for the
problematic target.
