 Ah yes, sorry. Never tested this, obviously...

 This shouldn't be too bad - every getgroupmembership
 backend puts it into the first slot. This means: if
 there is anything in the array before, the primary
 group is already there -- there is also no strict
 need to check for duplicates.
 What should be done is to check all added memberships
 for duplicates. At least the implementations in libc
 do so.
 
 So I've aligned the implementation more to the
 backends in libc. Can you give the appended patch a try?
 (Can't test myself atm. I've managed to corrupt my
 LDAP database.)
 
 best regards
 Matthias
