No, there is not a specific chgrp function because chown does that.

perldoc -f chown

   chown LIST
   Changes the owner (and group) of a list of files.
   The first two elements of the list must be the
   numeric uid and gid, in that order.  A value of -1
   in either position is interpreted by most systems
   to leave that value unchanged.  Returns the number
   of files successfully changed.


So if you want a chgrp function:

sub chgrp { chown -1, @_ };
