Actually, no, it doesn't.  The manpage says:
When  using  this  option  you must realize that the primary and
supplemental groups are set as well, even if the --group  option
is  not  specified.

At the very least IMHO, the documentation should be updated for sarge if this patch isn't applied. Daemons that need proper user-switching behavior can't reliably use start-stop-daemon as-is, and that should be clearly documented.
