[Building Sakai] Samigo NPE on group assessment

[Curtis Van-Osch]

It worked!  Thanks so much!

Although I tried deleting a group that had an assessment published to it 
and didn't have the same issue.  Must be a little more to it than that.  
Anyway, we'll be testing that patch and probably deploying it this week 
to avoid this in the future, regardless of whatever the cause was.
