+The @code{getgrouplist} function scans the group database for all the
+groups @var{user} belongs to.  Up to *@var{ngroups} group IDs
+corresponding to these groups are stored in the array @var{groups}; the
+return value from the function is the number of group IDs actually
+stored.  If *@var{ngroups} is smaller than the total number of groups
