Apache sets the env REMOTE_USER which is nice, but in several CGI applications I
missed the ability to know which group the user authenticated as, without having
to parse the group-file. So I made this little patch that sets the env
REMOTE_GROUP to the group (first match) a user was authenticated with. I think
the performance penalty is microscopic.
