Hi,

For the testcase setgroup3:

	* Test Description:
 	*  Verify that,
 	*   1. setgroups() fails with -1 and sets errno to EINVAL if the size
 	*      argument value is > NGROUPS
 	*   2. setgroups() fails with -1 and sets errno to EPERM if the
 	*      calling process is not super-user.

At the first checkpoint, set errno to EINVAL if the size argument value is > NGROUPS, it seems that has no matter with the value of group_list. Meticulously, we can set group_list to a normal value.

Same situation for the second checkpoint.

So can we reserve the group_list that set a normal value?


Thanks so much!
