I wonder if this should be changed.  If g-m-a-m is so troublesome,
then maybe people should be able to use g-m-a-g without creating a new
server.  Or maybe not - maybe this is why g-o-m-g isn't going away.

I suppose one could work around that by setting g-o-m-g to a function
that checks for the gcc-self parameter.  Where would such a function
find the current group name?
