Global variables

[Franks Andy (RLZ) IT Systems Engineer]

Ah, I forgot about rlm_cache. The primary group will always be the same
strangely enough, so I only need to look it up once.
I'll look into the cache
Thanks
Andy

But primary group is per-user, so you have to look it up per-request. 
You do for other groups too; aside from Microsofts irritating schema
decision, this is no different.

You could probably play with rlm_cache to cache either the lookup, or
better yet the higher-level "decision" result, keyed by username.
