The spamd_optC, spamc_optL, spamd_allow_user_rules, and spamd_plugin tests all
attempt to drop privileges during the "test" phase, but with no user to fall
back on, are unable to create temporary files necessary to complete the tests:

e.g:
[27488] warn: spamd: still running as root: user not specified with -u, not
found, or set to root, falling back to nobody
[27488] warn: spamd: bayes: locker: safe_lock: cannot create tmp lockfile
./log/user_state/bayes.lock.ldap.austin-energy.net.27488 for
./log/user_state/bayes.lock: Permission denied
