Summary: Error in documentation

Initial Comment:

So, this is more of a gripe than a bug...

Documentation in os module for getgid() and getpgrp() 
is worse than the UNIX man pages! OK, I know the 
difference, but I was a bit fuzzy. The os module 
documentation didn't help! Notice that the only
difference is in a possesive apostrophe.  Ack!
This seems a bit perverse.

getgid() 
 Return the current process' group id. 

getpgrp() 
 Return the current process group id.
