The version of mod_suphp in cPanel has several patches applied to it  
and functions a little differently than the pristine upstream  
version.  Basically, what you'd need to do is disable both the UID and  
GID checks in suphp.conf, making mod_suphp behave as if it was  
compiled in force mode.  The GID check compares the current GID  
against the GID of the script, so it would not pass that check if the  
user is a member of the group that owns the script but not configured  
to run as that GID via suPHP_UserGroup.
