By secondary groups I assume you mean the groups handled by initgroups and
getgrouplist.

I agree that something better is warranted.  Some time ago I added already an
initgroups entry to nsswitch.conf.  Now I also added code to not proceed to the
next service in case of a successful lookup in case the initgroups entry is
used.  If the nsswitch.conf file only contains an groups entry the behavior
doesn't change.  The result is in git.
