Do not write warning messages on stderr - a caller is expected to check
the return code and errno instead. Those warnings did not do any good
for daemonized users of initgroups(3), and confused cvs clients that
communicated with non-root cvs pserver.
The committed fix differs from the one suggested in the PR, and was
submitted by ru.
