I assume when you say "to set the group id" you actually mean "to assert 
the setgid bit"? I further presume that when you say "chmod g+" you 
actually mean "chmod g+s".

You can't have read the documentation very thoroughly. It says right at 
the top:

S_ISUID
S_ISGID

Of course, your process needs to have root privilege in order to be able 
to do that.
