This is a patch against php-4.0.4pl1.

Description:
  In Safe Mode, when opening files the UID of the script
owner and the UID of the destination file are compared. In
some circumstances it is desired that this check be relaxed
to a GID compare. The attached patch adds a php ini
directive "safe_mode_gid" (boolean, default: Off). When
this is On, a GID compare is performed if the UID compare
fails.
  Additionally this patch adds a new PHP function
getmygid(), which returns the GID of the executing script
(see getmyuid()).
