That does exactly what you *don’t* want here:

  $ ls -l id*
  -rw------- 1 Warren None 1.7K Feb 25 08:12 id_rsa
  -rw------- 1 Warren None  398 Feb 25 08:12 id_rsa.pub

  $ chgrp `id -g` id*
  $ ls -l id*
  -rw-rw---- 1 Warren Warren 1.7K Feb 25 08:12 id_rsa
  -rw-rw---- 1 Warren Warren  398 Feb 25 08:12 id_rsa.pub

How about this uglier alternative?

  $ chgrp `getent group 513 | cut -f1 -d:` ~/.ssh/*

“None” has one of the well-known SIDs, doesn’t it?
