as another poster noted, the limitation is probably in libc as
well. I would take EXTREME caution with modifying this setting. I
would not be suprised if a lot of things broke if you have some
absurd number of groups a user belongs to.
I don't have any hard evidence either way but wouldn't be suprised
if that was the case. And I would personally never attempt changing
the max groups setting myself, would rather do things differently
perhaps using acls or something(acls should be available in ext2,
probably ext3? and xfs at least, not in reiserfs as far as I know).
