Log Message:
Revert r39582 "(bug 12518) Interwiki userrights now reflects remote groups, not local groups." This won't actually work -- it checks the InitialiseSettings.php conf array for $wgGroupPermissions, but we don't set $wgGroupPermissions individually for every wiki. We use a system of several override variables which get applied in CommonSettings.php onto the default template.
Yes, so I saw when I researched this. However, the patch I applied will fall back to current behaviour, and I've committed the updates to SiteConfiguration.php to allow it to work if you update the config files accordingly. If you'd rather not use the new SiteConfiguration changes, I can always have another fallback to opening the foreign DB and SELECTing DISTINCT ug_groups, and combining that with a list of local groups.
