I am quite willing to add a new protocol that exports the group lists,
or potentially (in consultation with the squid team) add this additional
features to the existing squid-2.5-ntlmssp 'protocol'.

The information is all there, as you know, so it would not be a big
patch to pull out a string-converted list of SIDs.

(I would do this by passing them in the 'extra_data' of the winbindd
pipe protocol, separated from the username by a NULL, for example).
