supplied when _DARWIN_C_SOURCE is defined. _DARWIN_C_SOURCE is
normally defined, since it means "conform to POSIX, but add
non-POSIX extensions even if that violates the POSIX namespace
rules", which is what we normally want. But with getgroups there
is an inconsistency, and _DARWIN_C_SOURCE means "change getgroups()
so that it no longer works right". The BUGS section of compat(5)
says that the behavior is dubious if you compile different sections
of a program with different _DARWIN_C_SOURCE settings, so fix only
the offending symbol. */
