+- Issue #7900: The getgroups(2) system call on MacOSX behaves rather oddly
+ compared to other unix systems. In particular, os.getgroups() does
+ not reflect any changes made using os.setgroups() but basicly always
+ returns the same information as the id command.
+
+ os.getgroups() can now return more than 16 groups on MacOSX.

- Issue #6095: Make directory argument to os.listdir optional.
- Issue #9277: Fix bug in struct.pack for bools in standard mode
