So it looks like procps finally released a fix for this upstream. It is
primarily contained in a45dace4 and 95d01362.
I have created a ppa for this here. Can someone please test this ppa,
and report back here as to whether it fixes the seg faulting issues
related to large numbers of groups.
I'e just installed the ppa and test it issuing ps -ef which previously
produced the Segfault.
The PPA works. No more segfaults, at least using ps -ef.
Thanks a lot.

I came to the similar conclusion of increasing the buffer sizes when looking at
bug #117. That issue however resulted in a segfault, but is solved by the
same solution.

I created a very simple patch that allocates a larger buffer for the
contents of /proc/pid/status, and avoids the infinite loop scenario.
The buffer could still conceivably fill up, but ps at least won't crash.
A better solution would be to dynamically allocate memory when reading
/proc/pid/* ,
