I don't think we can. I cannot find a function to determine whether a user is a member of a given a group. APR uses getgrnam_r() internally but doesn't expose the 'struct group' result it gets from getgrnam_r(). We could add a new function to APR which this patch could then make use of. But until an APR version with such functionality is released we'll have to call getgrnam_r() ourselves.
