	Many thanks to all who answered -- I have learned a great deal.

	The system I'm working on is REGULUS, a System III-derived (with
some Sys6 & 7 "compatibility features"), and it is an AT&T-style system;
i.e., you need to use 'newgrp' to take advantage of the group feature.
	I personally think that the BSD way is better, since it gives
more functions, easier, but *tradition* seems to run the other way. **SIGH**
