Yes, the 64 bit variety of Fedora.

Compiled as a.out:
                                     
int main( void ) {
  return (setgid( 5 )?1:0);
}


[adam@localhost adam]$ ./a.out && echo Works || echo Broken
Broken
[adam@localhost adam]$ sudo su
[root@localhost adam]#  ./a.out && echo Works || echo Broken
Works
[root@localhost adam]#

Looks good to me.
