[issue16698] test_posix.test_getgroups fails on some systems

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily added the comment:

The problem is as documented for issue10433: http://docs.python.org/2/library/os.html#os.getgroups

Here's a patch that skips the failing test when Python is built on OS X with a deployment target less than 10.6.  Currently on releases prior to 3.3.0, the build deployment target defaults to 10.5 or earlier unless it is explicitly overridden at configure time with MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET (Issue11485).  The patch seems to work OK on 2.7.  I'm about to test with 3.2 and later.
