Hmm. Which one? Attempt to "SET ROLE <grouprole>"?
Unfortunately, I after reading your letter I realized that I missed a
case (it is not working even with your version):
postgres=# CREATE GROUP g1;
CREATE ROLE
postgres=# CREATE GROUP g2;
CREATE ROLE
postgres=# GRANT g2 TO g1;
GRANT ROLE
postgres=# CREATE USER u1 CREATEDB;
CREATE ROLE
postgres=# GRANT g1 TO u1;
GRANT ROLE
postgres=# CREATE DATABASE db_tpl;
CREATE DATABASE
postgres=# ALTER DATABASE db_tpl OWNER TO g2;
ALTER DATABASE
postgres=# SET ROLE g1;
SET
postgres=> CREATE DATABASE db1 TEMPLATE db -- shows nothing
postgres=> CREATE DATABASE db1 TEMPLATE db^C -- shows nothing
postgres=> RESET ROLE;
RESET
postgres=# SET ROLE u1;
SET
postgres=> CREATE DATABASE db1 TEMPLATE db -- shows nothing
postgres=> CREATE DATABASE db1 TEMPLATE db^C -- shows nothing
postgres=> CREATE DATABASE db1 TEMPLATE db_tpl;
CREATE DATABASE
It seems if a user has the CREATEDB privilege and he is a member of a
group (role) which owns a database, he can use the database as a
template. But to support it recursive queries should be used. Is it
useless or should be fixed?

I tried to. Should "FROM" be at the same row as sub-"SELECT" is
placed? Or there should be something else (I'm now only about
white-space formatting)?
Surrounding code looks similar enough for me... =(
