What do you mean by primary and supplementary groups? User's list of  
groups are listed in acl_groups setting. None of them is treated as  
primary. The user's UNIX groups aren't used for ACL checks at all.

Also why do you care about what the file's contents look like? You  
shouldn't be modifying them manually..
