May I safely ignore this failure?

Hopefully that will help.

That doesn't really help, since it references an old LFS build method. If you built LFS according to the 6.1.1 instructions, then $LFS is *supposed* to be owned by root, and the test should pass. The problem is likely to be the opposite. What is the output of "ls -ld /"?

Yes, / (i.e. $LFS in non-chroot'ed environment) is owned by root:
drwxrwxrwt 25 root root 4096 ...

It seems to me that this exactly is the reason why user dummy cannot set times 
of /, isn't it?
