Here's an implementation of newgrp I've written that attempts to conform
to SUSV2:
http://www.wiretapped.net/~fyre/freebsd/newgrp.tar.gz

It does not use PAM for authentication, instead it does traditional
authentication using /etc/group when it needs to. I don't think this is a 
problem since SUSV2 discourages using group passwords anyway. Is it worth
the effort to make newgrp use PAM?
