[STR New]

The attached patch adds support for MacOSX's Authorization Services.
As per your suggestion it uses a 'SystemGroupAuthKey' variable making it
equivalent to the @SYSTEM group directive. It also supports an
'@AUTHKEY(name)' syntax for finer grained policies. 

One other change of note: auth services is now checked before certificates
so that if a user locks the 'system.preferences' right they are presented
with the authentication dialog before being allowed to execute a
restricted operation.

Comments?

Thanks!
