...I was trying to run 'make check' as root because that is the only user I can use on other than my Linux desktop that belongs to more then one group. Everything but rm/fail-eaccess passed, and the rm/fail-eaccess failure should be expected. This test needs to be skipped if run as root (for reasons that I hope are obvious!).

Is someone more familiar with the test system able to fix this? I did this to get by it, but it's really just a hack:

if test "`id -u`" = "0"; then
  echo "Can't run as root, skipping"
  exit 77
fi
