New description:

 Even though the Group torrc option is obsolete as of 0.2.0.x, our
 configure.in script still handles --with-tor-group

 Then our contributed tor.spec file still tries to pass in things like
 %configure --with-tor-user=%{toruser} --with-tor-group=%{torgroup}

 Also, contrib/osx/Tor launches tor with the --group option, which Tor
 ignores:
                 $TORCMD -f "$TORCONF" --runasdaemon 1 --pidfile "$TORPID"
 --data
 directory "$TORDATA" --user "$TORUSER" --group "$TORGROUP" --log "notice
 file $T
 ORLOG" &

 We should change the packages so they stop trying to call the obsolete
 Group config option, and change configure.in to either ignore it or
 complain.
