Hmm, setuid() shouldn't clear the groups list. Perhaps setgid() (which
Apache calls) does though. Or maybe Apache calls setgroups().
Anyway... Put the tokens in the default PAG of www-data instead. That
is, don't use a PAG, just su to the www-data user and run kinit and
httpd. Then there are no PAG groups to loose. (Run the id command in the
same context to make sure.)
