User private groups are not an abnormal configuration, but
GHCi has such strict security that they are not allowed!

I appreciate what you guys are trying to do, but I at the very
least, it should be permitted to use a GHCi that is group
readable/writable as long as the group name and user name are
the same. It would be preferable, however, to do away with the
restriction altogether.
