man setpgrp returns:

SETPGID(2)                  BSD System Calls Manual                 
SETPGID(2)

NAME
      setpgid, setpgrp - set process group

SYNOPSIS
      #include <unistd.h>

      int
      setpgid(pid_t pid, pid_t pgrp);

      int
      setpgrp(pid_t pid, pid_t pgrp);

DESCRIPTION
      Setpgid() sets the process group of the specified process pid to 
the
      specified pgrp.  If pid is zero, then the call applies to the 
current
      process.

      If the invoker is not the super-user, then the affected process 
must have
      the same effective user-id as the invoker or be a descendant of the
      invoking process.

RETURN VALUES
      Setpgid() returns 0 when the operation was successful.  If the 
request
      failed, -1 is returned and the global variable errno indicates the 
rea-
      son.

ERRORS
      Setpgid() will fail and the process group will not be altered if:

      [EACCES]           The value of the pid argument matches the 
process ID
                         of a child process of the calling process, and 
the
                         child process has successfully executed one of 
the
                         exec functions.

      [EPERM]            The effective user ID of the requested process 
is dif-
                         ferent from that of the caller and the process 
is not
                         a descendant of the calling process.

      [ESRCH]            The value of the pid argument does not match 
the pro-
                         cess ID of the calling process or of a child 
process
                         of the calling process.

SEE ALSO
      getpgrp(2)

STANDARDS
      The setpgid() function conforms to IEEE Std 1003.1-1988 
(``POSIX.1'').

COMPATIBILITY
      Setpgrp() is identical to setpgid(), and is retained for calling 
conven-
      tion compatibility with historical versions of BSD.

I will do that, but I'm not holding my breath.  A search with google 
suggests it has been this way since at least 2001.

This works as a temporary solution.  Thank you very much for your help.
