Then somebody needs to update the man page:

"SU_GROUP	If defined, it changes the default group that is
 		allowed to become ``root'' from ``wheel'' to the
 		specified string."

"SU_ROOTAUTH	If defined, it specifies a group whose members are
 		allowed to become ``root'' by supplying their own
 		password instead of the ``root'' one."
